Excerpt from Christian OriginsScience is ever-progressing and, naturally, the state of knowledge here presented will be but a step in the onward march. In which direction? With certainty, nothing can be foretold, but, judging by all past experience and by many a sign of the pres ent, it may well be supposed that the progress of knowledge will not be toward the old tradition, but rather to a greater departure from it. Hence, we will do well to dwell more and more in the thought, that the real subject of our pious belief is not what has been, but what is eternal! That alone which never transpired in any place, never becomes time worn!That is no reason at all why the history of the past should be held valueless, it contains the signs and guides of the eternal, but not the final and the highest at which we ought to stop.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
