• catalog description "4. The limitations of Christ's thought, involved in the reality of his moral growth -- His miracles wrought by virtue of a power received from the Father -- 5. The church discussions regarding the right conceptions of the person of Christ, inevitable -- The divine and the human akin: but the human type of thought discursive, the divine intuitive -- The Gospels leave no doubt as to which of these types ruled in Christ's case: the divine self-restrained within the limits of humanity -- It is no objection to the kenotic view that it does not answer questions lying outside the historical revelation".
• catalog description "Activities which would not blend with his specific mission as Redeemer may be justifiable and even obligatory for us -- By ruling out these from our conduct we misrepresent (I) Christ's example in His relation to men; (2) The real character of His Gospel -- The apostles not determined in their action by precedents, but by the guidance of a living Lord -- V. Christ's authority on corporate duty; or, Christianity and the state -- 1. The methods of the church and of the state, diametrically opposite -- Christ not opposed to compulsory government as represented in an earthly state -- The authority of a political ruler, a trust from God -- St. Peter and St. Paul on the duty of civil obedience -- 2. The extent to which Christianity can be expressed in the action of a corporate body, limited by the distinctive character of the corporation -- The limits in the case of a voluntary association easily defined -- Not so in the case of the state, which is a necessary society -- ".
• catalog description "He spiritualizes current eschatological terms: the Sypnoptics and the fourth Gospel -- His varying references to the end correspond with his statement that he did not know the "day or hour" -- 5. Is the final judgment based merely on man's earthly record? Christ does not explicitly say so -- Considerations that seem to point to a probation after death; but Christ's teaching in its main lines does not encourage the idea -- The few truths regarding destiny which carry his authority -- VII. The incarnation and the Holy Spirit -- 1. The divine self-limitation involved in the incarnation, temporary: a means to an end -- Christ's death, the culminating point of a sacrifice which began in his assumption of humanity -- The theory that the incarnation would have taken place apart from sin, and according to the absolute purpose of God -- Tends to lesson our sense of the self-surrender which the incarnation implied -- 2. Christ's promise of the Spirit as ushering in a fuller revelation -- ".
• catalog description "I. The recognition of Christ as the incarnate Son -- 1. Statement of the questions to be discussed -- Grounds on which a unique authority is ascribed to Christ -- The two qualities that differentiate him from others who in their measure reveal God -- 2. What sinlessness means as applied to Christ -- The possibility of a sinless human life denied by many on two grounds -- The one method by which sinlessness can be proved -- Some who accept Christ's sinlessness can be proved -- Inadequacy of this view -- 3. His mediatorship : the claims he made for himself -- The contention that these express only his historic consciousness of sonship, not his essential or metaphysical oneness with the father -- 4. The place of Christ's resurrection in the argument for his deity. Contrast in this respect between the Apostles' standpoint and ours -- 5. Affirming Christ's eternal sonship we speak secundum hominem -- ".
• catalog description "III. Christ's authority on God: The spiritual as the distinctive sphere where Christ's authority rules. Need of defining the kind of authority which belongs to Him -- 1. Christ does not seek to verify God by speculative argument -- Why metaphysic cannot yield the results that religion demands -- Thought or reason not identical with the ratiocinative faculty -- The ethical intuition implicitly universal -- 2. Christ fixes on the ethical quality in man as the organ for attaining the knowledge of God -- The progressive imperatives of man's moral nature only to be explained by the urgency of an indwelling divine life -- Christ's revelation of God resides not merely in what he taught but in what he was -- He guarantees God as the correlative of duty -- 3. If Christ appeals to what is universal in man, why are there many in whom his attestation of God awakes no response? -- In some, this is due to moral disloyalty. In others, who are lovers of truth, to too narrow an idea of what truth is -- The methods of physical science inapplicable to the moral world -- The conditions of verifying ethical and religious truth: the "venture of faith" -- 4. Theistic belief and the problem of suffering -- Why individual suffering must largely remain inexplicable -- 5. Christ finds God in outward nature, because the first finds him in his own experience -- The "remorseless cruelties" of the natural world: why not fatal to the Christian belief in God".
• catalog description "IV. Christ's authority on individual duty: Christ's words and acts, diverse expressions of the one filial spirit -- 1. His injunction, "resist not him that is evil"; misconceptions of Tolstoy and Steeley -- The saying "Give to him that seeth thee"; what it means for us to-day -- His commands have often to be divested of their particular form, in order that their intention may be fulfilled -- 2. His acts not meant to be formally imitated -- The great principle of right conduct: consideration for others' good -- The complexity of its application -- 3. Christ's attitude of abstention in relation to the social and political wrongs of his age -- A similar abstention not observed by Christians -- Reasons for this contrast between his conduct and theirs -- a) Difference of political environment -- b) Difference of function: He, the Redeemer; they, the redeemed -- 4. Fallacy underlying the idea that we can best discover our duty by asking, what would Jesus do? -- ".
• catalog description "International policy subject to moral obligations -- Yet not to the same obligations as individual action".
• catalog description "Our categories in construing God's life, only approximative; but none the less indispensable for that -- II. The illegitimate extension of Christ's authority -- 1. The gospel records must decide what deity meant in Christ's incarnate experience -- The Chalcedonian definition controlled by abstract conceptions of Godhead and manhood -- The docetic tendency in patristic church -- The distinction between Christ's "divine mind" and his "human mind" unscriptural -- 2. The gospels assign to Christ a place in humanity in a definite historic succession: what this involves -- Christ and the Gentile world -- His relation to Israel, unique. Are his allusions to Old Testament characters and incidents authoritative in the historical sphere? Reasons against this view -- 3. Christ's predictions and those of prophets and apostles -- His unbroken communion with the Father does not of itself carry with it plenary intellectual vision -- ".
• catalog description "The deepening realization of what belongs to its proper function, due predominantly to Christianity -- Moral obligations incumbent on the individual which do not exist for the state -- 3. The relation of the state to Christian doctrine -- Dr. Arnold's theory of the unity of Church and state -- The results that follow from making Christianity "the basis of citizenship" -- The delimitation of the two spheres of Church and state -- Does not mean the extrusion of religion from civil affairs -- 4. The recognition of religion by the state -- The civil establishment of the church -- Advocated as helping to extend the church's influence; this view examined -- What constitutes a Christian nation -- The question of religious instruction in the national schools; of a different character from that of the establishment of the church -- Difficulty of the problem; the diverse considerations that have to be taken account of -- No method universally the best -- ".

The church as an organized body; Christ not anti-institutional -- The early church; its affluent spiritual life, leading to diverse methods of organization -- The itinerant supplanted by the local ministry -- The rise of the mono-episcopate -- Church administration, the sphere in which the false conception of Christ's authority has been most disastrous -- How the theory of apostolic succession grew up -- Exaggerated deference paid to the fathers -- In what sense the scriptures are authoritative -- Ecclesiastical polity a branch of applied ethics -- The truth embodied once for all in the incarnate life; but man's apprehension of it imperfect and growing.".
• catalog description "VI. Christ's authority on human destiny: The kingdom of God: Christ's view of the end to be interpreted by His view of the process that leads up to it -- 1. The phrase, Kingdom of God: not originated by Christ; but he gave it a new content -- From the inwardness of the kingdom, as conceived by Him, spring to facts: its reality as a present power, the gradualness of its growth -- Christ did not share the "catastrophic" conceptions of Jewish apocalyptic -- 2. The kingdom a process, but a process that is to reach its consummation -- Why the present mundane order presupposes a final judgment -- This judgment to be realized through the completed manifestation of what Christ is -- 3. While affirming the consummation, Christ asserts his ignorance of the "day or hour" -- This quite in harmony with the character of his vocation -- How can we account for the sayings attributed to him which foretell the time of the end? -- ".
• catalog description "Why the incarnate period had first to close -- The history of the church shows the conditions necessary for receiving the Spirit's illumination -- The will of Christ gradually revealed to the apostles (a) through the teaching of new facts; and (b) through their own deepening spiritual life -- 3. The ethical content of the Christian consciousness: how unfolded -- Moral forces, working in the social and political sphere, have revealed to the Church the fuller meanings of its own ethic and doctrine -- These forces, though often antagonistic to the church, had their origin in Christ's teaching -- 4. The operation of the Spirit intertwined with man's intellectual activities -- With the advance of knowledge, religious conviction assumes new intellectual forms: this transition never accomplished without friction -- 5. Christ's teaching: reasons for the form He gave it -- Place of the intellect in the apprehension of His message; as e.g. his "sacramental" words -- ".
