 Church Times - ‘He was an inspiration for social witness’   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
MAURICE is remembered mostly today for his part in the formation of Christian Socialism, galvanised by the widespread alarm in 1848, the “year of revolutions”, concerning the supposed threat posed by the Chartists.
Maurice thought that the Church of England had abandoned its vocation to embrace and transform the nation, and that, in preaching the duties of the poor, it had ignored the duties of the rich.
Maurice’s theology combined two contrasting insights: a biblical theology that was content to accept the scriptures as a coherent living voice, and a metaphysical conviction of the universal nature of divine wisdom.

 First World War.com - Primary Documents - Sir Frederick Maurice on the Allies' Decision to Accept an Armistice
Reproduced below is an extract from General Sir Frederick Maurice's post-war account of the closing period of the war, The Last Four Months, published in 1919.
In this extract Maurice addressed the prevailing controversy which debated whether the Allies had been premature in agreeing an armistice with beaten Germany.
While Maurice acknowledged the validity of this argument he ultimately discounted it on the basis that Allied supply lines were essentially over-extended at the time the armistice was agreed, and that further military advances would have resulted in starvation in the Allies' front lines.

 The Kingdom of Christ / Frederick Denison Maurice   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Maurice was a fearless thinker, educationalist and social reformer, who made a profound impression upon his contemporaries, but it is mainly as a man of religion that he is remembered.
Maurice's magnum opus was The Kingdom of Christ, published in 1838, and its relevance is clear at a time when the relationship between Church and State is being discussed.
Yet his ideas transcend his churchmanship, and he is regarded as the most significant influence in the religious life and thought of England during the nineteenth century, combining prophetic witness, systematic thought, and creative endeavour, unified and inspired by the ceaseless aspiration of a life consecrated to sanctity.

This brings me to that part of his character of which I must especially speak, and that is, of his goodness.
Maurice's conclusions or opinions on this detail or that, agree on this, that he was a good man, one of the best men they ever met; indeed an utterly good man, who therefore desired, as all good men must, to make others good.
I have known many who painfully differed from him in doctrine, and who did not appreciate the power of his genius, agree at least to this--that he was at once perhaps the most pious and the most gentlemanlike person whom they had ever met.
