Sinopsis

This book is a collection of essays written by renowned theologian Robert Moberly. The essays encompass a range of religious and philosophical topics including theology, human personality, divine manifestation, and the Eucharist. Moberly draws on his expertise in theology and philosophy to explore the nature of belief in God, the relationship between faith and reason, and the significance of Christ's incarnation. He examines the concept of a personal God, discussing arguments for and against belief, and the implications of believing in a Supreme Being. Through analysis of the nature of human personality, Moberly argues that an understanding of our own selves leads us to an understanding of God's personality and nature. Delving into the mystery of Christ's incarnation, Moberly explores the idea that God became human in order to make humanity more divine. Finally, in his essay on the Eucharist, he investigates the relationship between Christ's incarnation and the sacrament of Holy Communion. Overall, this book offers a comprehensive and insightful perspective on the nature of belief, the relationship between humanity and divinity, and the search for meaning through religion.

Excerpt from Problems and Principles Being Papers on Subjects, Theological and Ecclesiastical

The collection has been entitled Problems and Principles, because Dr. Moberly's great aim was to get at the right principles underlying the matter in hand, compared with which he con sidered that the details are of small importance. He was deeply convinced of the vast influence that is exercised upon mankind by ideas, and that right thinking must in the long. Run win the victory - fortis est veritas et firaewlet; and with this conviction he fearlessly assailed the problems that face us, whether in theology or in ecclesiasti cal politics. Further, the fact that his writings are concerned with principles gives them a per manent value reaching beyond the particular circumstances which were their immediate occa sion. Including nearly all his printed utterances outside his books, the form of these papers is varied - some are sermons, some pamphlets, some papers read at meetings but under the diversity of form lies a fundamental unity of thought and method. In arranging the papers attention has been paid to their subject-matter and logical con nection rather than to the chronological order of their composition.

Excerpt from Problems and Principles Being Papers on Subjects, Theological and Ecclesiastical

By one of those dispensations of Providence which are so mysterious to us, Robert Campbell Moberly was taken away from the Church on earth last year, just at a time when he seemed to have attained a position and an opportunity of offering her the greatest services by his doctrine and counsel. He had indeed left behind him solid monuments of his teaching in his two greater works, Ministerial Priesthood and Atonement and Personality. But there are many matters of practical policy which the Church will have to face in the next few years wherein we should greatly desire to have the help of his counsel and judgment. Failing, then, the living voice, we can at least gather up "the fragments which remain," that is to say, the various utterances or papers which from time to time he found occasion to print and publish.
