Excerpt from The Witness of the Heart to Christ These Lectures are only indirectly apologetic they necessarily take much for granted: they have one simple aim: they are intended to illustrate the adaptation of the Gospel to the needs of man. Man is the problem: Chris tianity is the solution. Tested in every age and by every race, the Gospel has proved itself fitted to man, and possessed of power to win the wandering affections, to satisfy the uneasy conscience, to establish the wavering will, to form the character, to kindle new hope, and to inspire with nobler aims the chance-led or passion-driven life. Of all those who have appealed to man, Christ alone has uttered the magic words before which the sin-closed door of the human heart has rolled open. If this be true, the truth supplies an argument.

The Witness of Jesus and Other Sermons (Classic Reprint) available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Excerpt from The Witness of Jesus and Other Sermons The noblest and most enduring record which any man can leave behind him, when he has finished his earthly labors, is the influence which his life has made on other lives, which, transmitted from one generation to another, becomes a perpetual force for good while the world stands. While such a record is not traceable for human eyes in all its wide and subtle ramifications, it is none the less real and potent. A consecrated personality is the mightiest force for the uplifting of humanity which this world has ever known or can know. A good man is God's best gift to the world. Such a man cannot live and labor and suffer and die without putting into active operation good influences which, embodied in other lives, become permanent factors working for the world's redemption. It has often, however, been a matter of regret among his brethren and friends that Alexander Procter did not, during his active life, put into more enduring form those ideas and truths which, as preached by him, so profoundly affected those who heard them.

Excerpt from The Secret of Progress Buckle1 regarded it as clear that militarism and high intellectual development were not compatible: till recently, many people were prepared to believe that warfare was alien to the interest of civilised peoples and could only occur among half civilised or backward races. But this war has shown that these hopes were vain, and that the last result of civilisation was not to render war impossible, but to give the means of carrying it out on a vastly extended scale. The increase of knowledge and of power over nature, and the sense of the benefits of intercourse and inter-communication have not sufficed to give us any immunity from war.

Download and read online ebook Christ the Heart of Creation write by Rowan Williams. This book was released on 2018-09-06. Christ the Heart of Creation available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. In this wide-ranging book, Rowan Williams argues that what we say about Jesus Christ is key to understanding what Christian belief says about creator and creation overall. Through detailed discussion of texts from the earliest centuries to the present day, we are shown some of the various and subtle ways in which Christians have discovered in their reflections on Christ the possibility of a deeply affirmative approach to creation, and a set of radical insights in ethics and politics as well. Throughout his life, Rowan Williams has been deeply influenced by thinkers of the Eastern Christian tradition as well as Catholic and Anglican writers. This book draws on insights from Eastern Christianity, from the Western Middle Ages and from Reformed thinkers, from Calvin to Bonhoeffer – as well as considering theological insights sparked by philosophers like Kierkegaard and Wittgenstein. Christ the Heart of Creation concerns fundamental issues for Christian belief and Williams tackles them head-on: he writes with pellucid clarity and shows his gift for putting across what are inevitably complex ideas to a wide audience.
