Excerpt from The Function of the Church in Modern SocietyHeart, is often heard in unexpected places, implying wherever heard the tragic ele ment of suffering. But the claims upon the Church for spiritual authority and for human sympathy are alike SO constant and so pressing, and they are in reality so closely related, that the Church can at no time allow these essential and mutually supporting ministries to decline or to be separated. The history of the Church proves by too frequent illustration how empty a thing is authority without sympathy, and how weak a thing is sympathy without authority.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
