Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Moral and Spiritual Aspects of Baptism: Together With an Examination of the Nature of Faith and Its Relation to Baptism: Being a Philosophical and Scriptural Examination of the Conditions of Salvation as Presented in the Gospel Philosophy has always exerted a powerful, and often a distorting, influence on religious belief. This has been strikingly exemplified in the history of Christianity. Although the Church has always believed herself to be in possession of an inspired and infallible revelation of the divine will, and although this revelation was delivered in the plain, simple language of the people, and spoke with apparent definiteness and clearness on most subjects relating to duty and destiny, views the most divergent have been held at different times on many of these subjects, and professedly derived from the Scriptures themselves. A singular fact in the history of religious opinion is that, whenever prevailing habits of thought have tended to diverge in any respect from the obvious meaning of Scripture statements on any subject, the Scriptures, although believed to be infallibly true, have not been able to arrest the tendency, but, while perhaps modifying it to some extent, have themselves been subjected to new and often violent interpretations, to bring them into accord with the prevailing view. Strangely enough, such methods of producing harmony have seemed to satisfy many noble men, and have aroused no suspicion that the new view was not in accord with Scripture teaching.
