The Natural History of Immortality (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Natural History of Immortality<br><br>"We assume, not that we are intruding by our own reason into the awful secrets of the Divine nature, but that God has been graciously pleased to reveal His nature and His will to us, in a certain measure, and under certain limitations ... the Christian faith reveals the profoundest truths ever opened to human ken, those who reject such an illumination must condemn themselves to a proportionately profound darkness." - Prebendary Wace, The Foundations of Faith, Bampton Lectures, pp. 66, 67.<br><br>"Thought is never satisfied with what it has gained, nor has it ever to weep because there are no new realms to conquer. Like the gods of the Indian legend, it dives downward and soars upward for ever, and yet the reality which it surveys stretches infinitely beyond through all eternity." - Alfred Barry, D.D., D.C.L., Manifold Witness for Christ, ch. iv. p. 261.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
