Synopsis
Excerpt from The History, Object, and Proper Observance of the Holy Season of Lent
In this state of things, the writer has frequent ly sought - but without success - for something, which in a small compass might contain the ne cessary information with respect to the Lenten Fast. He could only find, a few pages by one author - a sermon by another - or perhaps some brief tracts, which, although excellent in them selves, did not attempt to discuss the whole sub ject. Having waited therefore for several years in vain, in the hope that the desired work would be furnished by some one better able to do it jus tice, he has at length ventured himself to under take the task.

The History, Object, and Proper Observance of the Holy Season of Lent
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the origins of the practice of the 40-day Lenten fast in Christianity. The author argues that the practice has a historical and biblical basis and provides the reader with a detailed Scriptural defense of the fast. While the book is meticulously researched, the author goes beyond a mere historical survey and provides a thorough analysis of how the Lenten fast can help Christians in the present day grow in their faith and take up their cross in imitation of Christ. The author argues that this journey is one best taken with the support of a community and thoroughly explores how the Church, in its weekly prayers and lessons, supports the individual believer as they go through the season of reflection. 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 # 9781330860007_0
