Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from First Principles: Nine Essays From the American Churchman In all our congregations there are a mass of "non-professors," particularly among the men. They are not dis believers, usually. They are not even un-believers. The traditions of a Christian Home and training cling to them. They are far from being ready to deny the lessons, or the influences, of their boyhood. But they stand outside all Christian organizations. They will give for the support of Religion, and often, liberally. They will attend Church, often quite regularly, and are always anxious their families should do so. They recognize the value of the Church and the ordinances of religion as guardians of public morality. They will be the personal friends and helpers of the Clergyman - often his warm and generous friends. They are, in hundreds of cases, honorable, upright, large-hearted men, leading their lives, as a matter of fact, on Christian principles of justice and charity. They have every thing but the one thing. They will not "follow Me." They are so much in advance of the young man in the Gospel that they will do the first half of the command. They would, for any really grand and good cause, "sell all they have," and give to the cause; but they do not "Come and follow Me."
