Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Whose Son Is Christ?: Two Lectures on Progress in Religion
Religion is an affair of the heart and becomes entwined with the affections from youth onwards, like one's native language and one's mother country. Wherever the heart is concerned, um sought interference in the affairs of others is both Objectionable and dangerous, and nothing is further from the intention of these lectures than to alienate anyone from the faith Of his fathers. The pious Israelite who, faithful to the usages of his forefathers, prays to the One Eternal who once led his people out of Egypt; the Christian who is confident of reconciliation with God his Father through Jesus Christ, his Saviour the Mohammedan who, in obedience to the precepts of the Prophet, prostrates himself in the dust five times a day before Allah, the All Merciful and Gracious - shall our Father in Heaven not be equally near to all these his chil dren, provided that they prove their devoutness by their deeds? For Without works assuredly every form of faith is dead. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
