Bøger af Madame Guyon

Este pequeno livro, concebido em grande simplicidade, não foi escrito para ser publicado. Eu o escrevi para poucas pessoas, que desejavam amar a Deus com todo o seu coração. Mas, por causa do proveito que tiveram ao ler o manuscrito, muitos pediram uma cópia para si. Por causa de tais pedidos este livrinho foi entregue ao prelo.Deixei o livro em sua simplicidade original. Não contém qualquer crítica aos ensinos de outros que já escreveram a respeito de coisas espirituais. Pelo contrário, reforça tais ensinos.Agora submeto o livro inteiro ao julgamento dos homens eruditos e experientes, com apenas um pedido: por favor, não parem na superfície, mas entrem no meu principal propósito ao escrevê-lo. Esse propósito é levar todo o mundo a amar a Deus e servi-Lo de um modo mais fácil e mais simples do que qualquer pessoa pode imaginá-lo.Tenho escrito este livro, intencionalmente, voltado para aqueles queridos e simples seguidores de Jesus Cristo que não estão qualificados para a pesquisa intensiva, mas, todavia, desejam dar-se completamente a Deus.O leitor que vem a este livro - sem preconceito - encontrará, escondida debaixo das mais simples expressões, uma secreta unção. Essa unção o excitará a procurar aquela felicidade interior que todos os discípulos do Senhor deveriam ter o desejo de possuir e gozar.

A CHRISTIAN CLASSIC A collection of five inspiring essays by three brilliant thinkers who graced the court of Louis the XIV. François Fénelon, Madame Guyon, and Père Lacombe. These three encouraged others to seek God themselves and practiced a form of "Quietism" which was considered heretical by the Roman Catholic Church. Madam Guyon believed in constant prayer to, and communion with, the Almighty and believed that you could have intimacy with God outside of the bonds of the church. FÉNELON: - Christian Counsel - Spiritual Letters MADAME GUYON: - Method of Prayer - On the Way to God PÈRE LACOMBE: - Spiritual Maxims Over the past few centuries, many have been encouraged by these short essays and found them instrumental in deepening their relationship with God. You will be encouraged and inspired.

Some apology is perhaps needed when a Protestant thus brings before Protestant readers the works of a consistent Roman Catholic author. The plea must be, that the doctrine and experience described are essentially Protestant; and so far from their receiving the assent of the Roman Catholic Church, their author was persecuted for holding and disseminating them. Of the experience of Madame Guyon, it should be borne in mind, that though the glorious heights of communion with God to which she attained may be scaled by the feeblest of God's chosen ones, yet it is by no means necessary that they should be reached by the same apparently arduous and protracted path along which she was led.

This collection of five books contains F?nelon's outstanding teachings on prayer, suffering, the achievement of virtue, and other spiritually crucial tenets.Uniting aspects of philosophy with Christian theology and spiritualist thought, F?nelon presents here a lively set of treatises where esoteric knowledge and concepts are put to singular good purpose: enhancing and informing the spiritual life of the reader. Although at times arcane, the advice given is rooted in the Christian tradition and scriptures. F?nelon never attained mainstream popularity as an author during or after his life, however he was and remains a favorite of scholars and religious adherents seeking to explore the deepest channels of their faith. Although more difficult than other inspirational authors, F?nelon's authenticity and depth cannot be doubted.
