Excerpt from Christian Socialism Dear Sir, I dedicate to you this little volume on Christian Socialism because you are the oldest surviving member of that movement in England, and one who has never ceased from the first to believe and to teach others to believe in the eternal principles of Truth, Hope, and Love in the pursuit of a higher social ideal. One of the original promoters of co-operation, itself the beloved offspring of Christian Socialism, its legal adviser in times when as yet it was unprotected by tho law, you have never since ceased to impress upon its members tho higher law of Christian love as a paramount force in society. While others have lost faith in their fellow-men and voluntary effort, you have continued, hoping against hope and with "munificent trustfulness" in principle, to advocate the cause of co-operative union on higher than commercial principles, to accentuate tho importance of the moral and religious factors in co-operative industry, and to aspire "after a union over widening into that all-embracing federation to which the social reformer looks forward."

Excerpt from Christian Socialism and Its Opponents And I trust that those of us who have entered upon this undertaking, have done so, not although, but be cause they were lawyers. It may be that the practice of litigation has led them to long for some more har monious resolution of social difficulties; it may be that the study of technicalities made them seek after some application of a more simple, and, as it were, living law; or, again, that the penning of verbose Acts of Parliament, destined to remain a dead letter to the masses, made them feel the gulf that separates the statute-book from the nation that it nominally rules; or that a familiarity with the construction of commer cial partnerships and companies made them more and more aware of the total absence of legal facilities for the association of Labour. They found thus, in this movement, 0 work ready to their hand, for portions at least of which all previous experience seemed to have specially fitted them; and whatever may or may not be the ill-results, upon their present or future earnings, of the step they have taken, I believe they have no reason to repent of it. They are still labouring in their vocation, fulfilling their appointed duties, learning to frame, learning to apply, a most real and practical law.

Excerpt from Charles Kingsley and Christian Socialism Kingsley was already known to Maurice. He had attended the meetings of bible scholars at Maurice 5 house in 1847, and they had corresponded extensively. To Maurice he went therefore to see what could be done to prevent a collision between troops and Chartists. Maurice was confined to the house with a severe cold, but he sent Kingsley to Ludlow with a letter of introduction. The two men set out for Kennington Common, where the Chartists were to assemble, but at Waterloo Bridge they heard of the ignominious dispersal. Of the demonstrators and returned to Maurice with the news. From this moment we may trace the inception of the Chris tian Socialist Movement. The band of men who were to lead the movement had already met-maurice, Hare, Ludlow, Mansfield, Scott, Parker, Hughes, Kingsley, and, later. On, E. Vansittart Neale.

Excerpt from Socialism and Christianity Centuries before the birth of Christ, there lived a proud and despotic ruler of an Eastern kingdom who, surrounded by power and splendor, forgot the Lord of heaven and earth, trusting exclusively in the wealth of his country and the strength of his people. The prophet Daniel warned him against his impious ways, and besought him to forsake his iniquities, and to acknowledge that the Most High ruleth over the kingdoms of men. But the king thought himself safe in the enjoyment of his glory and strength, and strutting up and down his gorgeous palace, he said with sinful pride: Is not this the great Babylon which I have built to be the seat of the kingdom, by the strength of my power, and in the glory of my excel lence? Scarcely were these words out of his mouth. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
