Special Directions for Christian Conference, Exhortation, and Reproof But a discourse of God, and heaven, and holiness, doth tend to change the hearers' minds into the nature of the things discoursed of: it hath been the means of converting and sanctifying many a thousand souls. A discourse of riches, at the most, can but direct them how to grow rich; a discourse of honours usually puffeth up the minds of the ambitious: and if it could advance the auditors to honour, the fruit would be a vanity little to be desired. And it maketh the application much more easy, by their nearness and the familiarity of the discourse; when sermons are usually heard but as an insignificant sound, or words of course. www.puritansermons.com /baxter/baxter27.htm

Farewell Discourse of Thomas Campbell, Sr. Therefore, in legislation and government, in addition to the four attributes which I have named, as manifested in Creation, our heavenly Father presents himself to us in three others--to wit, justice, truth, and holiness. But our merciful heavenly Father, blessed be his name, did not forsake us in our lost, wretched, ruined, and undone condition, but graciously came to our relief; and when there was no eye to pity, nor arm to save, laid help upon one who was mighty--able to save all who come unto God by him. But it has pleased the heavenly Father to bring me here this morning, the subject of his mercy and the object of his unwearied care, and I am, by his strengthening grace, here to commune with you, as best I can, upon the common duties, privileges, and hopes of the people of God. www.mun.ca /rels/restmov/texts/tcampbell/address.html

Saints - Josemaría Escrivá In his discourse to those who attended the canonization, the Holy Father said that “St. Josemaría was chosen by the Lord to proclaim the universal call to holiness and to indicate that everyday life, its customary activities, are a path towards holiness. In 1974 and 1975, he made two long trips to a number of countries in Latin America, where he met with large groups of people and spoke to them about their Christian vocation to holiness. Josemaría Escrivá was born in Barbastro, Spain, on January 9, 1902. www.scborromeo.org /saints/escriva.htm

Pope John Paul II: Discourse of the Holy Father at Ecumenical Service in Cairo Cathedral I recall with gratitude the meeting between Pope Paul VI and His Holiness Pope Shenouda III in 1973, and the Common Christological Declaration which they signed on that occasion. Common Declaration of Pope Paul VI and Pope Shenouda III, 1973). Afterwards, we offered one another the sign of peace, and for me that joyful moment was a foreshadowing and a foretaste of the full communion which we are striving to achieve among all Christ's followers. www.catholic-forum.com /saints/pope0264bc.htm

Asian Studies Calendar of Events Description: For more than fifty years, the people inside Tibet had not seen or heard from their exiled spiritual and political leader, His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama until Kalsang Dolma traversed the Tibetan countryside, covertly showing Tibetans a videotaped message from His Holiness. In fact the "museumification" of the real culture on the one hand, mass production of forged cultural artifacts on the other, and the people themselves in a freefall of cultural changes beyond their control, is a peril that has doomed many other peoples and threatens Tibetan society today... A new generation is sparking a modern Tibetan cultural revival and, in the process, challenging our assumptions about Tibetan culture and art. www.asianstudies.emory.edu /events/events.cfm   (369 words)

A Discourse of God's being the Author of Reconciliation He was first chosen as the well-head of grace and glory, then others chosen on whom, from, and through him those should be conferred; for he has chosen us in him, that we should be holy, therefore he chose Christ as the spring to convey this holiness to his elect. Christ was first elected as head and mediator, and as the cornerstone to bear up the whole building; for the act of the Father's election in Christ supposes him first chosen to this mediatory work, and to be the head of the elect part of the world. Surely, then, reconciliation and redemption, which are none of the meanest blessings, indeed the visible foundation of all the rest, arising immediately from election, the secret foundation, and which are indeed the end which electing love aimed at, these are the corner stone upon which all the rest are built. www.iclnet.org /pub/resources/text/ipb-e/epl-10/web/charnock-author-reconciliation.html   (21273 words)

Sample Chapter for Rose, J.: The Question of Zion. Jewish dereliction and messianism could be seen as the two sources of Zionist discourse; or "terror" and "exultation," to use Edward Said's terms (he is discussing the need for Arab understanding of the "internal cohesion and solidity" of Israel for the Jewish people). In fact for Scholem, without Shabtai Zvi, there would have been no Zionist secularism, whose break with Orthodoxy was made possible only by Shabtaism's iconoclastic and anarchic "breeze"; the doctrine of the holiness of sin paved the way for indifference to all traditional Jewish law. Up to 1492, the messianic strand of Judaism had waned, but after the expulsion, the exiles from Spain responded "with a wave of apocalyptic agitation," "messianic birth pangs" that would eventually reach their apotheosis in the life and movement of Shabtai Zvi. www.pupress.princeton.edu /chapters/s7927.html   (5429 words)

Discourse For your gifts, or if you wish, your payments, would tarnish and utterly ruin my honor and purity and holiness and that of all my successors, and would close the way to those who are about to come to the knowledge of the truth. One of their number, a most devout man, Constantine, the first openly to come to belief in the Truth, gave permission to those living under his government, throughout the whole world, not only to become Christians, but even to build churches, and he decreed that landed estates be distributed among these. Constantine chose them not "as his intercessors" but "to be his intercessors." The fellow inserted that "to be" [esse] so as to get a more elegant rhythm. history.hanover.edu /texts/vallapart2.htm   (946 words)

"THE APPLICATION OF PERFECTIONISM TO POLITICS": POLITICAL AND ECCLESIASTICAL ABOLITIONISM IN THE BURNEDOVER DISTRICT This perfectionist justification for political abolitionism can be better understood by using an interpretation provided for us by Donald Scott.84 Scott has demonstrated how the earliest reformers who argued for the immediate abolition of slavery in the 1830's appropriated the theological discourse of revivalistic evangelicalism. Many influential "Liberty men" were Unionists, and some of them were pastors of the perfectionist Union churches in their communities.89 Liberty party leaders also belonged to the other ecclesiastical abolitionist groups such as the Franckean Lutherans, the Free Baptists, and the Wesleyan Methodists, each of which promoted Christian holiness. The assimilating of ideas among perfectionist abolitionists suggests that a new evangelical consensus was emerging based on a mutual commitment to sanctified living.117 This new consensus was changing the alignments within the revivalistic tradition, and these changes had momentous implications for subsequent generations of evangelicals. wesley.nnu.edu /wesleyan_theology/theojrnl/21-25/25-02.htm   (946 words)

Essays: A Sefer Torah For Children In the context of his discourse on the Sefer Torah, the Rebbe Shlita explained many Halachic aspects pertaining to it.
