Excerpt from The Divine Aspect of History, Vol. 1
The positive affirmation of this book lies in its vindication of the main current of Biblical teaching as unique in its spiritual truth, especially the teaching of Jesus of Nazareth; whom Christians are right in regarding as the revealer of the way into eternal life, and as the reconciler of God and man, and who was also (though this is not the way in which Christians commonly put it) the first of the sons of men to feel intimately his true filial relation to God, which relation he also taught us to believe as belonging to ourselves, and as capable of being realised by us if we trust God and pray to him with all our hearts. That Jesus is rightly called the Christ, or in other words the ruler of all mankind (which is what the title Christ implies) is also affirmed in this book; though it must be understood that the rule attributed to him lies in his attractive power, not in any external compulsion exercised or authorised by him. External com pulsion, though not always avoidable among men, is quite different from the government and the organisation which Spring from true religion.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the connection between spiritual forces and historical events, arguing that an unseen force emanates from God, granting life precedence over material forces. It traces this concept back to ancient religious texts and examines how it plays out in the Christian tradition. The author argues that the life and teachings of Jesus Christ manifested the power of this force, allowing humans to reconnect with their divine origins and strive towards spiritual fulfillment. This book presents a unique perspective on the role of spirituality in shaping human history and individual lives, offering insights into the nature of existence and the potential for human growth and transformation.
