Excerpt from Social Aspects of Christianity The Sermons in the present volume were preached (with two exceptions) during my residence at Westminster in August and December, 1886. I have indeed endeavoured to enforce the main ideas which they contain at various times during the last thirty years; but the opportunity seemed to require that I should endeavour to bring, as far as I could, into a clear and connected form what had been spoken only fragmentarily before. No one indeed can tell what is the effect which 'the Abbey' and the vast congregations which gather there, eager to listen, produce upon one who first experiences it at the close of life. Of all places in the world 'the Abbey, ' I think, proclaims the social Gospel of Christ with the most touching eloquence. So it was that when I was called to work at Westminster in 1884 I could not but feel with intense force the power of old thoughts, and in the first sermon of my first residence I indicated a line of teaching which I hoped to pursue if the time were given. Some passages from that Sermon will serve as an introduction to what follows. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Social Aspects of Christianity: And Other Essays All of these essays, except the second, have already appeared in print, and a word with reference to each of them may not be out of place. The first essay, which gives the title to this little volume, was originally a lay sermon, preached in the Presbyterian Church, in Fredonia, N.Y. Subsequently it was enlarged and published as a series of five articles in the Congregationalist of Boston. The second essay was originally an address, delivered before the Baptist Ministers of New York, at one of their usual Monday gatherings. The third essay consists of two parts. The first appeared in the magazine the Chautauquan, and was part of an article bearing the same title. The second part - with the introductory remark - was written for the Baltimore Sun at the solicitation of the Charity Organization Society of Baltimore, and by that Society reprinted in the form of a pamphlet. A special edition was printed for the New York Charity Organization Society. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Written by contributing scholars who are experts in specific facets of developing Christianity, this survey provides a well-rounded introduction to the history of Christianity and is ideal for anyone interested in the impact of Christianity of world culture down through history. It shows how Christianity emerged from its original Jewish context and developed into a worldwide religion, offering perceptive studies on how its origins and development were influenced by the changing social and cultural contexts in which the founders and leaders of this tradition lived and thought. Provides detailed evidence of the influence of Greco-Roman and Jewish religious concepts and religious movements on the origins of Christianity, considers the structuring of the church conceptually and organizationally in Europe, and discusses Christianity's spread and growth in America and throughout the world. Looks at the profound impact of the culture of the later Roman and medieval world on the development of Christian doctrine and intellectual traditions and helps readers understand the reasons for the divisions between Catholic and Protestant traditions.

"From the earliest interactions of Christians with the Roman Empire to today's debates about the separation of church and state, the Christian churches have been in complex relationships with various economic and political system for centuries. Renowned theologian Rosemary Radford Ruether analyzes the ways Christian churches historically interacted with powerful systems such as patriarchy, racism, slavery and environmentalism, while looking critically at how the church shapes these systems today. This book is neither an attack on the relationship between Christianity and these systems nor an apology bur rather a nuanced examination of the interactions between them. By understanding how these interactions have shaped history, we can more fully understand how to make ethical decisions about the role of Christianity in some of today's most pressing social issues."--BOOK JACKET.
