By Horatio Woodburn Southworth

Book Overview

""Not On Calvary: A Layman�������s Plea For Mediation In The Temptation In The Wilderness"" is a book written by Horatio Woodburn Southworth in 1892. The book discusses the biblical story of Jesus being tempted in the wilderness by Satan and argues that the traditional interpretation of the story is flawed. Southworth contends that Jesus did not overcome Satan's temptations through his own divine power, but rather through the use of meditation and spiritual discipline. The author, a layman rather than a theologian, presents his ideas in a clear and accessible manner, drawing on his own experiences with meditation and contemplation. He argues that the practice of meditation can help individuals overcome their own personal temptations and lead a more fulfilling spiritual life. ""Not On Calvary"" is a thought-provoking and challenging book that challenges traditional interpretations of the Bible and offers a new perspective on the story of Jesus in the wilderness. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in spirituality, meditation, and the intersection of religion and personal growth.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
