The New Interpretation, or the Scriptures Viewed in the Light of Christian Science: Sermons (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from The New Interpretation, or the Scriptures Viewed in the Light of Christian Science: Sermons
The story of the gospels came at a time when the faith of men was ready to receive it. The world had waited for it. The immaculate conception of Jesus; His precocity in wisdom when a child; His marvelous under standing in riper years, unaided by tuition or association with the learned and thoughtful; His marvelous gift of healing and His power over material nature; His senten tious utterances of the highest spiritual truth; His undef served sufferings at the hands Of bigoted and malicious pietists; His violent death; His resurrection and final dis appearance from human sight, are the elements of a story which crept into the faith Of the world, because it served to solve the problems of being, which no philosophy or speculation of preceding times could solve. Men had lost all faith in mythologic legends. They had wearied of the theories of the origin and destiny Of man and his world, which were incapable Of proof or demonstration.

The New Interpretation (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines two popular texts, one a novel and the other a work of abstract thought, both recently published and focused on religious themes. The author considers the reasons for the widespread popularity of the novel, Robert Elsmere, by Mrs. Ward, in spite of the fact that it was harshly judged by orthodox religious leaders. The popularity of the book, it is suggested, is due to its thoughtful exploration of current theological questions, especially those regarding the nature of Jesus and the role of miracles in Christian thought. While the author of this book acknowledges that the two women who wrote these religious texts have brought fresh and much-needed perspectives to the discussion of religious topics, she contends that the core doctrines of Christianity, including the divinity of Jesus and the importance of belief in miracles, will not be overthrown by arguments or evidence, whether historical or philosophical. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780259314301_0
