Reprint of the original, first published in 1882.

Excerpt from The Endless Life: Two Discourses on the History of English Opinion on Human Destiny, During the Last Thirty Years, With a Special View to the Doctrine of Immortality Through the Divine Incarnation The history of English thought on human destiny is a subject which may well lift us above all personal recollections into the infinite realms. Individual interests vanish when the rending veil exposes eternity to our view. Yet, if we are to give the history of English thought and Opinion it will be necessary to state some facts, and to commemorate some English experiences, since it is through the finite that the infinite is brought into relation with man. I shall not detain you long with the story of local endeavour in this field of English belief. The beginnings which we bring to mind to-day will soon lead us away from our own individuality into a review of greater movements, and the commemoration of the deeds of many soldiers of Christ in our own and other lands. Nevertheless, as this is our Commemoration day, we will tell the home story first of all. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
