Excerpt from Through Nature to Christ: Or, the Ascent of Worship Through Illusion to the Truth I desire to do then is, to inspire the belief that He was human, by showing that He worked upon the laws that govern humanity - spiritual laws, of course, but still the same spiritual laws that govern men. In other words, Christ wrought Signs, forgave, con verted, manifested Himself to His disciples after death, and bequeathed His Spirit to us in accordance with the same laws by which common men perform corre sponding acts. Approaching Jesus of Nazareth in this way from the side of His humanity, we should, as it seems to me, be more likely to believe in Him, instead of believing facts about Him; and this kind of belief seems just now most needed and most rare. I know that one obstacle to the worship Of Christ is the supposition that His in uence does not cover all the departments of human life. It is fancied - how idly I shall try to shew hereafterl - that Christ only teaches us morality, and that He has no attitude at all toward science, while He absolutely discourages art, and is hostile to the pleasures and graces of life. Fully to expose the absurdity of such an assertion would be a task requiring more space than I can devote in a work not specially devoted to the Life of Christ but I hope to show at least that it is baseless, and to prove that if a man desires to obey the precept of Goethe and to live resolutely in the Whole, the Beautiful, and the Good, or, in other words, to give due homage to science, to art, and to morality, he cannot do this better than by striving to live in conformity with the spirit of Jesus of Nazareth.
