Excerpt from The Perfect Life Sermons For its teaching is not only Jewish, it is above all things Catholic. All through, there runs an under current of permanent principles, and every now and again these - like Pindar's notion of the river which ran under land and sea from Greece, and came up in sparkling freshness and beauty in the Sicilian fountain of Arethusa - these principles and truths burst up and sparkle in life and brightness, with a power and attractiveness of a new revelation. Not unnaturally, there are many truths in the sermon on the mount which have appeared in other codes of morality put forward by other religions. Not unnaturally, I say, for after all there is but one Teacher to mankind, and that is the Eternal Word The light which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. That Teacher has taught men in every age as man would learn; but here the same great Teacher puts forth in fullest form those high moral laws which, in one way or another, He had to some extent imprinted on the minds of His creatures. Here is the complete statement; here is the comprehensive view. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Sermons on the Christian Life The publisher of this volume has been anxiously desirous to promote, by such means as his position might place in his power, the habit of reading for direct religious edification. He has believed that, both in the private chamber and in the family circle, especially when any are deprived, wholly or partially, of the privileges of the sanctuary, no other books will quite supply the place of printed sermons; and he has regretted that, in our country, so few volumes of this class are offered to the public. In the hope that the taste of thoughtful persons may not be yet at settled variance with what was formerly esteemed so favourable to the growth of individual and domestic piety, he determined to enter on the publication of several volumes from living preachers of the Church, if their consent could be obtained, and if the first results of the enterprise should not be mere discouragements.

Excerpt from The Possible Life: And Other Sermons It was never bluer than at the very moment when I was writing that a week ago, and the church bell was tolling with a sweet and lingering invitation which I did not heed. More worshipful for me to lift up mine eyes unto the hills from whence cometh my help, to see the great white clouds trail ing their dusky shadows over them. And yet, again, the non-church-goer has the mighty poets, in their misery dead, it may be, but in their power and grace and helpful ness alive forevermore, and the great thinkers of the ages, the good books of many kinds, - one, very little known, called the New Testament, which contains the story of a man that is very helpful and inspiring, and as little like the old, old story of our traditional Christianity as one story can be like another.

Taking his cue from Saint Augustine, who once described the Sermon on the Mount as the perfect measure of the Christian life, Frank Matera provides an exposition of the sermon that draws out its implications for daily life. Written for readers who want to know how they ought to live out their discipleship today, this volume shows how the sermon summons all believers to single-minded devotion and wholehearted service to God. This lively and engaging commentary is an ideal resource for adult education and Bible study groups, as well as for individuals looking to deepen their discipleship.

Excerpt from Way, Truth, and Life: Sermons There are three persons who, better than any others, could have - told the simple, uneventful story of qmr. Staples's life. Of these his wife stands first. She would not have me say it, but I must. And I regret unspeakably that any distrust of her own ability or-fitness should have prevented her doing what I am sure she would have done most perfectly. As I have talked with her about her husband, her appreciation of his character and work has seemed so perfect, her sympathy with all his hopes and plans 'so lively and profound, that I never shall be reconciled to her unwillingness to be his bio grapher and the editress of his writings. I am only partly reconciled by the consideration that she would not have told, as I must tell, or be no true biographer of him, what noble furtherance her husband found in her, what intellectual and spiritual companionship, what rest in weariness, what patient cheer in sickness and in death.
