Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Unity and Schism: The Bishop Paddock Lectures for 1917 The Bishop Paddock Lectures are delivered annually in the Chapel of the General Theological Seminary at New York. When the Trustees of the foundation honoured me with an invitation to undertake the course for the year 1916-17, the Dean of the Seminary suggested that I might with advantage lecture on the Unity of the Church and the effects of Schism.1 gladly adopted the suggestion. The subject is one which insistently demands attention. Concurrent with a growing toleration of the divisions of Christendom is an active and widespread movement towards Christian union. The combination is curious. Men who are unwilling to speak of schism, who resent plain speaking about it, and accept its present con sequences as if they were a normal feature of the Christian religion, press forward eagerly in search of a plan for modifying or even terminating a state of things to which they seem to have little objection in principle. There are dangers in this course of action. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
