Cadbury deals in the "Editorial Comments" of this issue, is listed here for the benefit of readers who may have missed the newspaper story. A large number of the Sayings of Jesus that are part of the documents can also be found word for word in the four Gospels. But Dr. Cullmann stressed the fact that the Gospel of Thomas differs from the canonical four Gospels because it is not set in the narrative form which is so characteristic of our Gospels. The designation as a "gospel" is therefore Published weekly, but biweekly from June 13 to September 19 and December 19 to January 2, at 1615 Cherry Street, hardly justified. Apart from sayings, including parables and Philadelphia 2, Pennsylvania (Rittenhouse 6-7669) By Friends Publishing Corporation the beatitudes, which parallel the Gospel text verbally, and WILLIAM HUBBEN MILDRED A.

  • 2009 Lecture
    2009 THE JAMES BACKHOUSE LECTURE The Quaking Meeting Transforming our selves, our meetings and the more-than-human world Helen Gould In Meeting for Worship we may sense a mystical communion with God through each other. This is the gift of the ‘gathered meeting’. THE JAMES BACKHOUSE LECTURES The lectures were instituted by Australia Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) on its establishment in 1964. They are named after James Backhouse who, with his companion, George Washington Walker, visited Australia from 1832 to 1838. They travelled widely, but spent most of their time in Tasmania. It was through their visit that Quaker Meetings were first established in Australia. Coming to Australia under a concern for the conditions of convicts, the two men had access to people with authority in the young colonies, and with influence in Britain, both in Parliament and in the social reform movement. In meticulous reports and personal letters, they made practical suggestions and urged legislative action on penal reform, on the rum trade, and on land rights and the treatment of Aborigines. James Backhouse was a general naturalist and a botanist. He made careful observations and published full accounts of what he saw, in addition to encouraging Friends in the colonies and following the deep concern that had brought him to Australia. Australian Friends hope that this series of Lectures will bring fresh insights into the Truth, and speak to the needs and aspirations of Australian Quakerism. This particular lecture was delivered at the Australian National University, Canberra, on Monday, 5 January 2009, during the annual meeting of the Society.

  • Of Pendle Hill Pamphlets 1934 - 2014
    Index of Pendle Hill Pamphlets 1934 - 2014 Introduction Many remarkable gifts have come out of the Pendle Hill experience, but few are more remarkable than the series of Pendle Hill Pamphlets, ongoing now for eighty years. Conceived as the published equivalent of messages spoken in a Friends’ meeting for worship, these brief essays reflect the range and vision of unprogrammed Quaker religious thought and practice. Among the authors represented here are a handful of famous names, such as Toynbee, Weil, and Buber. But for the most part the pamphlets are the works of a “cloud of witnesses” distinguished primarily for their spirit and expressiveness. And while there are recurring themes among them (peace, worship, art), the four hundred-plus titles cover almost as many topics. Over the years, many readers have commented on the richness of spiritual resources and information represented in these essays. Many have also asked for help in using them in study, reflection, and research. This index is designed to answer that need. It includes four sections: • Section I is an annotated list of the pamphlets. This list is in numerical order, and the pamphlet number serves as a cross-reference tool throughout the index. Each listing includes title, author, date of publication (in parentheses), a brief summary of the essay, and its subjects. • Section II groups the pamphlets alphabetically by author. • Section III lists the pamphlets alphabetically by title. • Section IV offers a subject index for the pamphlets. Index by Number Cooperation and Coercion as Methods of Social Change Nicholson, Vincent De Witt (1934) 1 The author asks if the consequences of differences and conflicts can be creative instead of devastating.

Mueller ,,\ 11,-:. ~ "/" \\,':: BRO A D MAN PRESS B P Nashville, Tennessee © 1959 • BROADMAN P RESS Nashville, Tennessee All rights reserved International copyright secured 423-08039 Library of Congress catalog card number 59-9687 Printed in the United States of America 5.N58KSP To All the Alumni Preface HE DREAMS, devotion, and insight of James Petigru Boyce brought into focus the desires of Southern Baptists for a Tcentral theological institution and thus determined that a cen­ tennial history of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary would have to be written at this time. It is appropriate, therefore, to let Dr. Boyce set the tone of this preface. The Civil War had driven the Seminary from its original home in Greenville, South Carolina, to Louisville, Kentucky. On the occasion of the opening session in this new home, September 1, 1877, Dr. Boyce looked back over the first eighteen years of sig­ nificant struggle and said: I do not propose to recount the history of this enterprise. That history, so far as it ever can be written, must await the full fruition of all our hopes, and should come from one less intimately asso­ ciated with it than I have been. It never can be written in full; it never ought to be thus written. It is only God's inspiration which dares speak of evils and faults and injuries and calumnies proceeding from men whom we know to be good. That inspired Word alone can make these simply the shadows which bring out more gloriously the brightness of the character of the good.
