Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Safest Creed and Twelve Other Recent Discourses of Reason The great word in the doctrinal part of the New Testament is Salvation. The great word of the Protestant theology is Salvation. Salvation is Safety. Safety is health. "Safe and sound," we say; that is sound which is safe; that is safe which is sound. Health consists in the proper adjustment of the creature to his conditions. Health of body consists in this; it is a perfect understanding between the body and its material surroundings, climate, temperature, food, occupations. The physical constitution is safe when no inherited disease undermines its vitality and exposes it to hidden assault from within the citadel, and when no ill-adjustment of circumstances threatens it with malady. The safety of the mind consists in a harmonious relation with the intellectual world, which assures to it a healthful, happy activity, undisturbed by tormenting doubt or disabling fear, uncramped by prejudices that limit inquiry, or bigotries that prevent culture. The safety of the heart consists in the fortunate direction and felicitous play of its natural affections. In what does the safety of the soul consist, if not in its sense of security in the world of Providence, its trust in the Eternal? The safe creed is the desirable one, as all will acknowledge. Salvation under some form is what all demand of their faith. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
