Description: SCARCE. This Christian powerhouse can easily be compared to Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Small format softcover in VERY GOOD+ Condition with some light soiling, light wear, a slight lean to the spine, but nothing dramatic. No writing, no loose or torn pages, but possibly missing the first blank page; I'm unsure. No other missing pages and a tight, firm binding. Scarce. a few phenomenal excerpts: “A true Christian not merely can, but is seriously obliged to, develop a personality — his own individual personality. He must retain his own particular character, his mannerisms, without any artificial affectations. He must keep his own likes, his dislikes, his own sensitivity. In short, he must keep everything that is human in him provided that it is not a barrier between himself and God”. “The supernatural must not exclude the human. Just as the supernatural is founded on the natural, so the Christian should be founded on the man. And for this reason, the man himself also should become strong and healthy. The perfect Christian must also be a perfect man from the point of view of culture, professional capacity, social education and refinement” ~ Sellmair, The Priest in the World. “However manly you are, never for one moment forget that if you die in mortal sin you will go to hell — with all your human virtues” “The human virtues, — they are called acquired because they are the exclusive fruit of the repetition of human acts and personal efforts — are the walls of a great canal, watertight bulwarks which prevent the sides from falling in under the pressure from all around. On the bed of the canal the divine waters of grace will then flow easily, with no obstacles of the flesh to impede the flow”. “Do not think it paradoxical when I tell you that it is precisely then, when you have to fight against your base tendencies of your human nature, that you are being most manly”.
