DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1850 edition. Excerpt: ...gold, the freedom of the universe, the freedom certified to us of an everlasting progress in virtue and social blessedness, which no change can interrupt, is bestowed by Jesus Christ. Here is the great point and peculiarity of our religion. This 15 lies not simply in its revelation of the fatherhood of God, and the brotherhood of men, glorious, inspiring, and fruitful doctrines as these are. Still less does it lie in any theory about human nature, or sin or salvation. It is to be found rather in the assured direction our religion gives to the long-questioning, groping, doubting faculties of the human mind; and in the clear, broad aim with which it raises the affections of the human heart, so long feeling after, if haply they might find their fate, and too often sadly, in their darkness, searching around the grave-stone and the narrow house as the last distinct objects in their doom. It is in the home, in short, among eternal realities provided for the spirit that is in man, and " a stranger on the earth "! I trust I do not open a vein of sentiment remote from any of you, or point to a source of relief for merely fictitious necessities. Have you never, in your meditation, in your adversity, in your grief, in your satiety, in your uneasy longing, had the experience? As you have finished the ever-recurring routine of the day's labor, while you listened to the monotonous cries of business, or as you heard the sounds of evening gayety, have you never become aware, that your soul was very much a stranger among these things; that it had " faculties " which could not be "used" upon them, and needed to abide in some higher objects, before it could be truly at home? When your capacities of thought and emotion have been aroused by some special...

DOWNLOAD EBOOKRaised a slave in Nero’s court, Epictetus would become one of the most influential philosophers in the Stoic tradition. While exiled in Greece by an emperor who considered philosophers a threat, Epictetus founded a school of philosophy at Nicopolis. His student Arrian of Nicomedia took careful notes of his sometimes cantankerous lectures, the surviving examples of which are now known as the Discourses of Epictetus. In these discourses, Epictetus explains how to gain peace-of-mind by only willing that which is within the domain of your will. There is no point in getting upset about things that are outside of your control; that only leads to distress. Instead, let such things be however they are, and focus your effort on the things that are in your control: your own attitudes and priorities. This way, you can never be thrown off balance, and tranquility is yours for the taking. The lessons in the Discourses of Epictetus, along with his Enchiridion, have continued to attract new adherents to Stoic philosophy down to the present day.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKSt. Symeon the New Theologian was abbot of the monastery of St Mamas in Constantinople at the turn of the eleventh century. He was also perhaps the most remarkable and certainly the most forceful advocate of the mystical experience of God in the history of the Byzantine Church. Though they were on occasion suppressed by ecclesiastical authorities wary of his fierce enthusiasm, as well as of his claims to charismatic authority, St Symeon's writings survived in the Orthodox Church and continued to play a vital role in the several renewals of spiritual life and prayer which has sustained the Church in its often difficult history over the past millennium.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Discourses on the Christian Spirit and Life Is there a business-man, of whatever religious repute in his sectarian or theological circle, With his name standing however high on the roll of believ ers or saints, who yet regards his religion like his Sunday garment, as a thing to be left out of his shop or counting-room, lest it be soiled there in the rough hands of the world? There will be a littleness and disingenuousness in that man's secular proceedings, exposing him, if not, alas the religion he professes, to contempt. Religion is not so dainty about herself as this sub scriber of her creeds, and observer of her forms, is about her. She is ready to go, with the whole power and splendor of her celestial presence, into the com monest scenes, for the adjustment of the humblest matters. This separation of religion and business is no fiction, or supposed case for the sake of argument and moving appeal. I have known one in the very heat of religions enthusiasm, and with the most sacred names upon his lips, defraud a poor woman in the performance of a stipulated service, without seeming to imagine there was any inconsistency.
