Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from What Jesus Taught Regarding Wealth
HE manuscript of this book was first presented by the author to the faculty of the Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary as a thesis for the de gree of Doctor of Theology. It is one of the best theses ever presented to our faculty. The author was well equipped, both by natural tastes and a literary scholar ship, for a thorough investigation of this interesting, up-to-date sociological subject. He has put his best thought and most painstaking research into this pro duction. We heartily commend it to the reading pub lic, not only for what is in the book, but for the facile and attractive style in which the thoughts are happily couched.
The problems of wealth are the paramount problems of the Twentieth Century. Leading statesmen, wide awake ministers, and laymen of all economic condi tions, rich, poor, and of moderate circumstances, are alive to the supreme significance of the problems of wealth. If these problems are not solved, more serious issues will be precipitated upon twentieth century society. Moreover, the modern world, in increasing numbers, is coming to feel that Jesus' program on wealth, its production and distribution for the highest interests of society at large (which is equivalent to saying for the glory of God) is the only economic pro gram capable of settling the problems of our age.
