Página 17 - Deity in a religion, the external evidences of which are so conclusive to my mind as effectually to convince me that it comes from God. Unless I believe God to possess the same moral attributes which I find, in however inferior a degree, in a good man, what ground of assurance have I of God's veracity ? All trust in a revelation presupposes a conviction that God's attributes are the same, in all but degree, with the best human attributes. If, instead of the
Página 113 - There is no place where earth's sorrows Are more felt than up in heaven ; There is no place where earth's failings Have such kindly judgment given.
Página 112 - In Devotional Literature and Religious Thought, I find nothing of ours that does not pale before Augustine, Tauler and Pascal.
