Henry Drummond

No class of works is received with more suspicion, I had almost said derision, than those which deal with Science and Religion. Science is tired of reconciliations between two things which never should have been contrasted; Religion is offended by the patronage of an ally which it professes not to need; and the critics have rightly discovered that, in most cases where Science is either pitted against Religion or fused with it, there is some fatal...

Henry Drummond was a Scottish evangelical lecturer. Few men have exercised more religious influence than he has. In The Program of Christianity Henry Drummond sets forth how Christianity and society should interact.

The question you will naturally ask at the outset is, What is the new Evangelism?" Now that is a question that I cannot answer. I do not know what the new Evangelism is, and it is because I do not know that I write this paper. I write because I ought to know, and am trying to know. Many here, and all the most earnest minds of our Church, are anxiously asking this question, and each who has once asked it feels it to be one of the chief objects of his...

In saving men it is very often a life for a life; you have to give your life to the men whom you are trying to better. About the least Christian act a man can do for his brother-man is to talk about Christianity. Included here are "A Life for a Life," "Lessons from the Angelus," and "The Ideal Man."

In The Changed Life, Henry Drummond instructs us on how we may change our lives to be more like Christ. Also included are "The Formula of Sanctification," "The Alchemy of Influence," and "The First Experiment."

The addresses which make up this volume were written by Professor Drummond between the years 1876 and 1881, and are now published in the hope that they may continue his work. Included here are "Ill-Temper," "Why Christ Must Depart," "Going to the Father," "The Eccentricity of Religion," "To Me to Live Is Christ," "Clairvoyance," "The Three Facts of Sin," "The Three Facts of Salvation," "Marvel Not," "Penitence," "The Man After God's Own Heart," "What...

Henry Drummond was a Scottish evangelist, writer and lecturer. It had been his intention to reserve these lectures for mature revision, but an attempted piracy compelled him to hasten their publication, and they appeared in 1894 under the title of The Ascent of Man. Their object was to vindicate for altruism, or the disinterested care and compassion of animals for each other, an important part in effecting the survival of the fittest, a thesis previously...

Two very startling things arrest us in John's vision of the future. The first is that the likest thing to Heaven he could think of was a City, the second, that there was no Church in that City. Almost nothing, more revolutionary could be, said even to the modern world, in the name of religion. No Church, that is the defiance of religion; a City, that is the antipodes of Heaven. Yet John combines these contradictions in one daring image, and holds...
