Excerpt from The History of Christianity, Vol. 1 You cannot understand the history of the first centuries of Christianity, the phases through which it passed, the heresies which sprang up around it, the changes which 1t underwent, unless you first make yourself acquainted with the anterior or contemporaneous doctrines and religions. Nothing is insulated in the destinies of our race it is by the past that the present is explained and the future un veiled. Most Of the ancient forms of worship seem to be derived from a common origin. You find in that common origin, with some slight exceptions, the same theogonies, the same cosmogonies, the same religious institutions. Mosaism, although distinguished from the rest by the purity Of its conceptions, nevertheless took from them divers ceremonies and ordinances. In the last ages preceding the Christian era the Israelites, brought into contact with other nations by the captivity and by voluntary dispersion, adopted, under the influence of traditions and commentaries of old unknown, opinions which their sacred books do not contain, or at least do not declare in an explicit manner. Christianity in its turn coming, in its earliest days, forth from J udea to establish itself in the midst of polytheistic populations, failed to keep itself free from the influence of that medium, in the degree in which it Spread abroad it borrowed more or less according to the position of each Church or each group of Churches, from their philosophy, their rites, their superstitions.

Excerpt from The Rise of Christianity The truth is that not only must the Gospel stories of miracles be regarded as the outcome of legend-making or symbolical poetry, but the rest of their contents, unassailable in itself, must be granted to be intimately bound up with that element, and must not be considered as authentic history. Any man who has made some study of the question. And closely examined the contents of these remarkable writings - who has, in other words, clearly recognised subjective influence in the different stamp set on the words of Jesus by the several Evangelists - must long ago have awakened from the dream that we have here a sufficiently solid ground for the construction of a biography. The parables and the Sermon on the Mount, like the other sayings of Jesus, are found to be permeated with elements that can only have originated in the Christology of the community, not in the self-consciousness of Jesus. For instance, the well-known saying, which might be taken as a genuine utterance of Christ as far as its general contents go, Whoever will come after me must deny himself, and take up his cross and follow me (matt. Xvi. 24; Mark viii. 34; Luke ix. Cannot possibly have been spoken in this form before the crucifixion of Jesus. Thus there is a good deal in the Gospels that plainly bears the stamp of the consciousness Of the community and.

Excerpt from Christianity and History Of the human spirit. Observe that we pos tulate mere curiosity and interest in human nature, as a phenomenon, we postulate no sym pathy or interest in religious belief as such. For the Martian as described is a being for whom religion is an impossibility and the Christian ideal a subject for laughter. He would natur ally pass by our churches, ignore our religious books and newspapers, and regard the denuncia tion of the advancing tide of infidelity by Bishops and Archdeacons, as a proof that the terrestrials are only still at the lowest rung of the ladder, scaled already by the inhabitants of Mars. Yet none the less such a being could not be long upon earth, before he would be driven to the conclusion that if he desired to understand the civilization of Europe and America, to enter into the meaning of its poli tics, its literature, its art, and even to appreciate its political geography, there was one subject of which he must strive to make himself a master - the history of Christianity, of the manifold forms which it has assumed, of the strange spell cast by it upon the most practical of the races upon earth, and the still stranger reactions which it has exercised upon politics and culture.

Excerpt from The History of Christianity, From the Birth of Christ to the Abolition of Paganism in the Roman Empire For clergymen, also, and for all who cultivate sound theological learn. Ing, this work will be valuable. Though not embracing the whole ground of Church History, and, therefore, not meeting all their necessities, it takes up many subjects of no small importance, and treats them in a very able and interesting manner. On most of the topics which come within the range of his plan, Mr. Milman makes good use of what he justly de. Nominates the unwearied industry, the universal command of the litera. Ture of all ages and all countries, and the boldness, sagacity, and impar tiality in historical criticism of the modern German writers and he in. Genuously acknowledges himself under too much obligation to them not Openly to express his gratitude. Yet he is far from adopting all their conclusions. He is aware of the wild aberrations to which they are ia eident, and he is sedulous, and, for the most part, successful in selecting from them only what appears sound and valuable. Among the subjects of interest to theologians which Mr. Milman has discussed, are, the character of the different Pagan Religions, and their ia uences on society; the Grecian Philosophy, and its effects the Oriental Philosophy, and its legitimate offspring, the Gnostic and Manichzean sects; the in uences of this philosophy on the prevailing opinions and modes of thinking among the Jews, at the time of Christ's advent, and, consequently, Upon the language of the New Testament, and on the conceptions and the belief of Christians in the early ages, and even down to modern times the origination of asceticism, penance, celibacy, and bodily mortifications from this philosophy; the progress of Christianity in the four first centu. Ries, and the decline and fall of Paganism in the Roman empire the long struggles of the latter, first for victory, and then for existence, its artifices, its assumption of new forms, new principles, and a new organization bor rowed from the Church; the origin of the Christian Hierarchy, and its advances in power and wealth, and its complete dominion over the Church and the consciences of men; the spread of monkery in the fourth and fifth centuries, and its effects the changes in legislation and government, in the manners and customs of the people, in the arts, literature, and the general state of society, in consequence of the prevalence of Christianity. Besides these subjects, which properly fall within the s00pe or design of the work, Mr. Milman, as already stated, has gone over the entire history of the Saviour and his apostles. He likewise gives a pretty full and interest. Ing account of the principal schisms and controversies in the Church, and particularly of the early disagreements between the Jewish and Gentile converts, and of the Donatist and Arian controversies. He also gives us biographies of several of the most eminent fathers, Chrysostom, Basil, the two Gregories, Ambrose, Augustine, Jerome, &c.; and he even recites some of the more interesting martyrdoms.

Excerpt from Lectures on the Influence of the Institutions: Thought and Culture of Rome; On Christianity and the Development of the Catholic Church The "Hibbert Lectures" have been instituted for the purpose of providing a series of Lessons on the most important chapters of the History of Religion. It is in this connection that M. Max Muller has treated of the general development of religion in India, that M. Le Page Renouf has spoken of the religious function of Egypt. They form in some sort a Chair of the Comparative History of Religion, but a Chair which is occupied every year by a new Professor, who speaks only of that which he has made the subject of special study. I therefore felt myself deeply honoured when the Trustees of this useful Institution invited me to continue a teaching so worthily begun. I had long desired to see England, and to clasp the hand of my many English friends. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
