Excerpt from The Social Teachings of Christ Jesus: A Manual for Bible Classes, Christian Associations, Social Study Groups, EtcIncomparable because the Divine Teacher, and those of the masters of our own day who have sought to apply them to modern conditions and needs, and to put both in such form that they can be used by study classes. It is impossible to make acknowledgment in each instance where a thought, a saying, or even a line of proof of these masters is appropriated, often in their very words, but in the bibliography at the close of the book I have named all who have helped me, putting in a special list those to whom - to each of whom - I am under'greatest obligation. I have drawn freely on the articles in Hastings' Dic tionary of Christ and the Gospels. The charge is sometimes made that the Christian Church is not awake to the social sins and problems of the modern world. Jealousy for the Church's good name, together with a desire to instruct the people of my parish, prompted the preparation of these studies. They are now published in the hope that they will be useful to a larger number of students of the social teachings of our Lord.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
