Christianity the Science of Manhood

This Small Volume Has Been Born Of Doubt And Conflict. The Author Became A Member Of The Church At The Age Of Thirteen. Since That Time He Has Fought Over The Whole Ground Of Modern Skepticism In A Hand To Hand Contest With Its Shadows And Its Facts. He Has Found It Impossible To Rest In Tradition And Has Felt Compelled To Seek A Reasonable Basis On Which To Stand.. And There Has Been A Stimulus To This Conflict Beyond His Own Personal Longing For Rest. He Has Tried To Help Others. And In So Trying Has Found The Necessity Of Knowing A Way That Satisfied Himself Along Which He Might Point Or Pilot Other Pilgrim Feet.. And He Has Not Been Content Simply To Help Those Who Were Intellectually Satisfied And Only Needed An Impulse To Action. He Has Found Great Numbers Who Took No Steps For The Simple Reason That They Were In Doubt As To Which Way To Go; And He Has Learned That The Ordinary Answers To Skeptical Questions Were Insufficient To Convince Skeptics Because They Failed To Meet Them On Their Own Ground.. In The Outline Of Thought That Follows He Has Set Forth What Has Seemed A Solid Pathway To His Own Feet; And He Only Hopes That It May Have The Feeling Of God’S Firm Earth Beneath The Tread Of Those That May Choose To Follow Him.
