Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Personal Creeds: Or How to Form a Working-Theory of Life
Ened theological intelligence? To one Who reverences Biblical scholarship, and Whose reading has carried him largely outside of any provincial theology, there may come at times the temptation to speak some severe things concerning the theological ignorance, mounting often to intolerance, of such dogmatists as are happily character ized in these words of an apostle: Desir ing to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither What they say, nor whereof they confidently affirm. But leaving such words as better unsaid, or reserving them only for occasions When regard for the rights and liberties of the faith of others makes it the Christian thing to Speak them, I would seek in these ser mons to direct our thoughts to this matter of immediate and Vital importance to any man of us: How, amid the diversities of beliefs and unbeliefs in the world, shall I gain a living, personal creed? How shall I form my working-theory of life?
