The Saviour Of The World

Notable in the Presbyterian tradition, Benjamin B. Warfield's sermons on the history and significance of Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour are as lively, informed and embracing today as ever. Delivered at the end of the 19th century, these lectures are unflinching in accuracy and frankness: not a man to mince words or bluster, Warfield tells us who Jesus was and what He meant for the faithful of the world. The undoubted accomplishments of Christ, and his sacrifice for the sake of mankind, are detailed with the authoritative quotation of scripture. Warfield was a conservative even in his time: revivalism, which the author felt to be a distraction from the core teachings of Christ, has no presence in this work. For readers seeking a classic perspective on the life of Christ, this book is one which confronts the topics at hand with boldness. For years, Warfield ran the Princeton Theological Seminary, an institution which to this day is influential in educating those who will become Presbyterian ministers.

The Saviour of the World Book was written from a raw research style point of view in a crude way to illustrate the idea of ages or aeons or olams by indulging into the various occurrences of the word in the Bible. Possible exegesis to its meanings are explored with known Christ Centered Universalist scholars quoted and analyzed. Apart from that, the author adds support exegesis in that direction even sometimes diverting into unrelated topics to highlight certain common misconceptions or warn against some sins which may have been taken lightly at large. This book developed out of a personal interest and curiosity over this Topic and thus the author maintains his thoughts on the matter though mingled with certain unrelated subjects to defend more of the literal view of Biblical Exegesis.

In a culture suspicious of orthodox Christianity, Edwards sets forth the evidence for the historic claim that Jesus is the only savior of the world.

Charlotte Mason is known today as a British educationalist from the early 1900's whose ideas and philosophies are currently being rediscovered by modern day home schools and private schools throughout the world.

This volume will appeal to Mason's current fans, to Christians of many persuasions, and to anyone who enjoys reading epic and/or religious poetry. SOME OPINIONS OF THE PRESS ON "THE SAVIOUR OF THE WORLD" - VOL. I. - THE HOLY INFANCY These reviews/comments followed the original release of The Holy Infancy in 1907. "This is a very pleasant volume. The authoress has been entirely successful in her aim. Her verse is simple and devoid of sought adornment, and the familiar story wrought into it is revealed in something of its original sweetness." --Glasgow Herald "This book is a rendering, chiefly in blank verse, of our Lord's life as recorded in the Gospels. Its value, apart from the deep reverence and devoutness which characterise the book on every page, is that poetry catches the attention and intensifies the interest, which sometimes flags in the reading the text . . . new presentation of familiar truths, expanded and developed, gives a fresh delight, awakens new convictions, and is a further stay to faith." --School Guardian "The talented and devoted Anglican author of this work looks forward to the time when some poetic genius will arise and give to the world the greatest epic of all ages, the august story of the Messiah . . . The medium of verse is specially dignified being easily impersonal, condensed, reticent, and reverent. We congratulate Miss Mason on the considerable measure of success attending this first volume of the work to which she has put her hand . . . Various other passages it would be pleasing to quote, did space permit, and especially those concerning the weariness, disappointment, and isolation in the wilderness, and again Nicodemus and the soul's new birth, passages in which high doctrine, faithfully understood, is expressed in worth and musical language." --Tablet "The author of this little book has tried to supply a real want by giving us a poetical version of the Gospel History. She has many of the qualities that fit her for the task, a deep reverence for her subject and also a true poetic feeling." --Commonwealth "The Saviour of the World has one special merit. It helps one to realise what the Incarnation means practically--that the first Advent of God the son was a real identification of Himself with our mortal nature, not in appearance only." --Guardian "The first volume of what promises to be a remarkable work ... opens with a paraphrase in dignified blank verse, of the prologue of St. John's gospel . . . The poet paraphrasist has performed her self-appointed task admirably, with reverence and discretion . . . the interview with Nicodemus might well have been written by Browning himself." --Lady "To the author, the composition of these poems, illustrative of the words and acts of Our Lord, must have been a labour of Love . . . Everywhere her language breathes a spirit of deep devotion to the Saviour of mankind." --Catholic Times "A distinctly noteworthy contribution to contemporary devotional prosody . . . We wish her well upon her toilsome but enviable journey." --Liverpool Courier
