- catalog description "A. The resurrection in relation to the history of the church -- B. Various images under which the Christian society is described -- A kingdom -- A temple -- A body -- C. Hw these images are seen in light of the resurrection -- A spiritual kingdom: a new heaven and a new earth -- A structure reared through many ages and hallowed by One Spirit -- The visible body of the risen Christ -- D. Contrast between the fundamental idea of Christianity as the basis of a society and those of -- Paganism -- Judaism -- The principle of unity illustrated by the resurrection -- The principle of life -- E. The essential unity of the church does not require external unity, nor one visible centre of authority such as was for a time established at Jerusalem, till 'the end of the world,' and afterwards at Rome -- The extent of variation consistent with substantial unity not to be determined antecedently -- The admission of the necessity of variations in the church does not sanction sectarianism -- ".
- catalog description "B. Christianity in connection with universal history -- 1. The relation of Christianity to pre-Christian history -- a. Jewish History: Characteristics of the history of the Jews -- The discipline of Egypt, Sinai, the conquest, the kingdom, the captivity, the dispersion -- The development of the idea of a deliverer -- The doctrine of the Messiah, the word -- Contrast of the two doctrines -- b. Gentile history -- Greek literature and thought -- Roman statesmanship and law -- 2. The relation of Christianity to post-Christian history -- General outline of its progress: the church of the first centuries -- The medieval church -- The church of modern Europe. Evangelical -- B. The special evidence for the resurrection -- 1. The testimony of St. Paul -- 2. The character of the event: excludes the possibility of delusion -- Not anticipated by any popular belief among Greeks, or Jews -- 3. Contrary to the messianic expectations of the Jews to the ideas of the Apostles -- 4. The effects of the event -- on the character of the Apostles -- On the Apostolic view of the person of Christ -- Especially on St. Paul's teaching on the death of Christ, and our relation to him -- 5. The relation of the belief in the event to other parts of Christian doctrine -- The return of Christ -- The Holy sacraments -- The life of the Church -- II. The resurrection and man -- A. The final elements of every moral question: God, the world, self -- 1. The result of suppression of any one of these elements -- 2. The individual 'self' felt at present to be twofold and the antithesis which it includes is essential to our personality -- 3. Hence arise the questions -- Will our personality be preserved after death? -- What is the future relation of self to God? -- What is the relation of Self to the world?".
- catalog description "B. Personality as far as we can see, depends upon the special limitation through which the soul acts -- 1. Reason can shew that we survive death by shewing either that -- a. The soul will itself have a personal existence -- b. It will act through an organism corresponding to its present one -- On principles of Reason there is no reason to think that the individual soul is personal -- The judgment of Aristotle -- The arguments adduced in support of the belief apply to the past as well as to the future -- We have no ground for supposing that the soul can take to itself any organization soever -- Thus there remains a final conflict between Instinct and Reason as to our future personality -- 2. The doctrine of the resurrection preserves the idea of our personality completely -- The significance brought out gradually -- The Lord's body the same, yet unchanged -- After death the whole complex nature of man is ennobled -- ".
- catalog description "C. The final relation of man to God depends upon the reality and issues of sin -- 1. What reason teaches of sin -- The possibility of sin included in the idea of a finite, free being -- Its realization not required for moral development, though in some forms it may be subservient to it -- It is indeed essentially foreign to our nature and yet when once realized permanent in its effects -- Thus there remains an instinct which looks for forgiveness of sin, and Reason which points to the inexorable sequence of the results of action -- 2. The light which the resurrection throws on the forgiveness of sin -- In what way the Lord's suffering and triumph belong to us -- D. The relation of self to the world -- 1. This is indicated by the dignity assigned to the body, which is the seed of that which shall be -- 2. Effects of the doctrine -- Morally as to the individual and society -- Physically in relation to the outer world -- III. The resurrection and the church -- ".
- catalog description "I. Statement of the question -- A. The resurrection as the central truth of Christianity, either true or false: no mean -- 1. Morally a revelation -- 2. Historically a fact -- Uniting the objective and subjective elements of religion -- A religion of the world necessarily historical -- The history essentially moral -- B. Preliminary questions -- II. Introduction: Ideas of God, nature, miracles -- A. The difficulties of Christianity essentially included in common life -- 1. The resurrection a new fact and not an explanation of mysteries essentially insoluble by us, which are reducible to the final antithesis of finite and infinite -- a. Christianity assumes the existence of: an infinite personal God, a finite human will -- Explanation of terms -- Hence we gain some conception of: Nature in relation to God; Laws of Nature: simply laws of human observation which include the operation of an unknown force and cannot therefore be absolute -- Indeterminate powers in nature -- b. Christianity claims to be miraculous -- The idea of a miracle: a miracle not impossible nor unnatural -- What natural explanations must be avoided: In relation to God, in relation to man -- Why a scientific age is incredulous of miracles -- Instinct is not conquered by science -- Miraculous records not antecedently incredible -- III. The resurrection and history -- A. Christianity claims to restore harmony to all creation -- 1. A historical progress observable in the physical and moral worlds -- with which Christianity is intimately connected, according to the teaching of the Apostles, whether the advance was realized among the Jews or Gentiles -- And Christianity itself is a history, and has been developed historically -- In this lies its distinguishing characteristic, which centers in faith in the person of Christ -- If therefore the circumstances of its origin were unique, so also may have been the phenomena which it included".
- catalog description "We have to deal with a world in which sin is realized -- Progress itself implies antagonism and individuality -- F. The essential unity of the Church seen in its historic development -- 1. This development one of organization -- not of doctrine absolutely -- corresponding to the general progress of civilization and the complexity of the Christian body -- Hence it includes many partial and transitional developments, which are set aside when their work is done -- 2. How far this development is due to human imperfections -- Scripture the unchanging test of development -- 3. Our age presents an epitome of all past ages -- The function of national churches -- Grounds of hope in the midst of the contradictions of modern life.".
