Beyond the Horizon, or Bright Side Chapters on the Future Life by Henry Dox Kimball Pdf

Excerpt from Beyond the Horizon, or Bright Side Chapters on the Future Life There are those who evince indifference to the subjects discussed in this volume. It is assumed that, since nothing can be surely known concerning the future life, the time necessary to its study may be better employed in analyzing the relations and learning the duties which belong to the life that now is. Inquiry about the future is deemed unpractical and, therefore, of no appreciable value. It is assumed by people of this supposed practical habit of mind that they represent, in their estimate of "other-worldliness," the convictions and feelings of the more cultured and thoughtful. A ministry extending through three decades has given the author of this little volume opportunities to observe the relative interest of the churchgoing public in the various legitimate themes of pulpit discourse. It is his observation that there is a wider and deeper interest in the discussion of questions relating to the future life than in any other. This is natural. From the homes of most of us at least one has passed into the spirit world. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Heaven in the American Imagination by Gary Scott Smith Pdf

Does heaven exist? If so, what is it like? And how does one get in? Throughout history, painters, poets, philosophers, pastors, and many ordinary people have pondered these questions. Perhaps no other topic captures the popular imagination quite like heaven. Gary Scott Smith examines how Americans from the Puritans to the present have imagined heaven. He argues that whether Americans have perceived heaven as reality or fantasy, as God's home or a human invention, as a source of inspiration and comfort or an opiate that distracts from earthly life, or as a place of worship or a perpetual playground has varied largely according to the spirit of the age. In the colonial era, conceptions of heaven focused primarily on the glory of God. For the Victorians, heaven was a warm, comfortable home where people would live forever with their family and friends. Today, heaven is often less distinctively Christian and more of a celestial entertainment center or a paradise where everyone can reach his full potential. Drawing on an astounding array of sources, including works of art, music, sociology, psychology, folklore, liturgy, sermons, poetry, fiction, jokes, and devotional books, Smith paints a sweeping, provocative portrait of what Americans-from Jonathan Edwards to Mitch Albom-have thought about heaven.
