Excerpt from Christianity in Its Modern Expression Humane and sympathetic toward every fellow-sufferer, his sensitive soul was called upon to pass through many experiences which were peculiarly tragic. But in a very real sense it may be said that his suffering, even here, was vicarious. For he was able, as few are, to lead the afflicted and perplexed to the sources of spiritual strength. As he himself said, it is not those who suffer most who are in the greatest danger of losing their faith in view of the disasters and calamities to which human life is subject; their nee-d of God is too imperious for them to be able to give him up. And, with all allowance for such modifications of opinion as are to be expected from time to time in the mind of so eager and incessant a. Thinker, I believe it may be said that this book as it stands represents in the main those moral and religious convictions to which in the various vicissitudes of life this sincere lover of truth was ever wont to return after all investigation and reflection. As editor of this work, I must assume responsibility not only for the title, but for the fact of publication itself. I am not sure that Professor Foster ever contemplated giving these lec tures to the public. However, I am glad to have the approval of Mrs. Foster in the present undertaking. Obviously the book lacks the finished form which it would have received had it been put forth by the author himself, but I must leave it to the interested reader to judge whether the decision to publish has been well or ill-advised. The book must speak for itself. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
