Overview
The present volume contains two contrasting treatises. The first is religious, and shows in Count Tolsto#65533;'s earnest and eloquent manner the meaning of Christ's words which he takes for his text,-"The Kingdom of God is within you." The outward forms of religion, however helpful they may be to some souls, are not essential; the superstitions with which Faith sometimes clothes or masks herself may or may not be uplifting; but the foundation of Christianity is the truth contained in Christ's words, his simple, plain, undogmatic commands and prohibitions.One word sums it all up, and that word is Love. If the world should take love for its guiding star, it is evident that all the evils of the world would cease,-wars, crimes, poverty, ambitions; the millennium would come! Count Tolsto#65533; shows how that blessed period may begin in every man. The translation of this beautiful and inspiring book has been made by Mrs. Aline Delano of Boston.
