Synopsis

Causes And Evils Of Contentions: Unveiled In Letters To Christians is a book written by Noah Worcester in 1831. The book is a collection of letters addressed to Christians, in which the author discusses the causes and consequences of contentions. The book is divided into chapters, each of which deals with a specific aspect of contention, such as its nature, its effects on individuals and society, and its relationship to religion.Worcester argues that contentions are a result of human nature and that they arise from a variety of causes, including pride, envy, and greed. He also suggests that contentions can be fueled by political and religious differences, as well as by personal disagreements. According to Worcester, contentions can have serious consequences, including violence, division, and destruction.The author offers advice to Christians on how to avoid contentions and promote peace and unity. He emphasizes the importance of humility, forgiveness, and love, and encourages Christians to seek common ground with those who hold different beliefs. Worcester also discusses the role of religion in promoting peace and unity, arguing that true religion should inspire individuals to love and respect one another, rather than to engage in divisive behavior.Overall, Causes And Evils Of Contentions: Unveiled In Letters To Christians is a thought-provoking and insightful book that offers valuable advice on how to avoid contentions and promote peace and unity. Its message is as relevant today as it was when it was first published in 1831.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

My Christian Brethren Knowing that the time of his crucifixion was at hand, our Saviour took an opportunity to prepare the minds of his disciples for the event, by communicating such instructions as they were then able to bear, and such as he wished them to obseive. It was in this discourse that he gave them his New Commandment which he repeated again and again that ye love one another as I have loved you. He also said to them, By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples if ye have love one to another. He forewarned them of the trials which they would have to endure as his disciples, and promised to send to them the Comforter, which is the Holy Spirit.
