Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Personality and Fellowship My purpose in this Lecture is to show the fundamental importance of fellowship for the religious life. I first turned to the subject as a practical matter of church administration. I felt that it was an undesirable and dangerous thing for the Wesleyan Methodist Church to allow its peculiar form of fellowship, that of the class-meeting, to fall into neglect and disuse. Naturally I began to examine the reasonableness of this feeling, and also the amount of justification it had in the teachings of the Bible. At this time other interests led me to read Baldwin´s Social and Ethical Interpretations, and I recognized the great religious importance of his doctrine of the Self, as a category which embraces both the Ego and the Alter, and of the fact that our knowledge of ourselves and of our neighbours is born together and grows together as a unity. This took me back to an older inquiry into the difference between the kind of knowledge that we have of persons and that which we have of things, an inquiry suggested years ago by Huxley´s proposal that the efficacy of prayer might be tested by building two hospitals, the patients in one of which should be prayed for and those in the other not, both being similarly treated in other respects. I had seen when facing that problem that we could not pray for the one set and deliberately leave the other out, and had tried to make clear the reason to myself.
