The Central Teaching Jesus Christ


Book Description

Excerpt from The Central Teaching Jesus Christ: A Study and Exposition, of the Five Chapters of the Gospel According, to St. John, XIII, to XVII, Inclusive This book had its origin in some lectures delivered under a Diocesan scheme of "Higher Religious Education." Having afterwards undertaken to put in a readable shape the lines for the study of this part of Holy Scripture which had been then suggested, I soon found myself enlarging upon those notes, and exceeding the brief treatment proposed. In the holy atmosphere of that record, in presence of the solemn crisis to which it belongs, of the touching incidents, the wide range of discourse, and the deep significance of its words, a more anxious study and a more deliberate exposition were naturally created.
