The Teaching of Jesus

Excerpt from The Teaching of Jesus: In Eighteen Sections When Wendt's exhaustive work, Lehre Jesu, appeared, it was evident that a new starting-point for theological reconstruction had been given to the world. It was a matter of regret that so magnificent a work should be marred by certain presuppositions which belong to the Ritschlian School. Beyschlag in his New Testament Theology offered some minor criticisms of Wendt's work, but did not unfortunately alter that defect, which was the most serious blot on the Lehre Jesu, the attempt to explain away one of the most indubitable elements of the teaching of Jesus, the fact of His pre-existence. I felt it my duty to give to my own Church the main results of these two invaluable books, especially in the hope that I might remove the great defect, while passing on the splendid spoil which these scholars had carried away from the study of years. I have now thrown the substance of eighteen sermons on the subject into the present form. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
