Synopsis
Excerpt from The Tests of Life: A Study of the First Epistle of St. John; Being the Kerr Lectures for 1909
AS only a portion of the contents of this volume could be orally delivered, I have not thought it necessary to adhere to either the form or the title of Lecture, but (with the consent of the Trustees) have assigned a separate Chapter to each principal topic dealt with. The method adopted in this exposition of the Epistle - that, namely, of grouping together the passages bearing upon a common theme - will be found, I trust, to have advantages which compensate in some measure for its disadvantages. That it has disadvantages, as compared with a continuous exposition, I am well aware. These, however, I have endeavoured to minimise, by supplying in the first chapter a specially full analysis of the Epistle, by careful indexing, and by making liberal use of cross-references. For the convenience of the reader, I have set down in the footnotes such exegetical details as seemed most necessary to explain or to establish the interpretation adopted; but where these involved lengthy or intricate discussion, they, along with all minuter points of exegesis, have been relegated to the Notes at the end of the volume. In these Notes the text of the Epistle is continuously followed.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the profound themes of righteousness, love, and belief as presented in the First Epistle of St. John. Written against the backdrop of early Christianity's struggle with Gnosticism, the author meticulously analyzes the text, revealing its intricate structure and powerful polemical intent. Through careful examination of key passages, the book unveils the epistle's core message: authentic Christian life hinges on adhering to these fundamental principles. It demonstrates how the apostle provides a set of criteria ââ â walking in the light, loving one another, and confessing Jesus as the Son of God ââ â to help readers discern the genuineness of their faith. The author's insightful exploration goes beyond simply identifying these tests. It delves into the interconnectedness of these principles, showing how they necessarily intertwine and reinforce each other in the life of a true believer. By illuminating the deep significance of these intertwined themes, this book offers timeless and invaluable insights into the essence of Christian faith and practice. 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. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781333970253_0
