Man: His True Nature and Ministry is a philosophical and spiritual work by Louis Claude de Saint-Martin, a prominent French mystic and philosopher of the late 18th century. The book explores the nature and purpose of human existence, delving into the spiritual potential of each individual and their role in the larger cosmic order. Saint-Martin argues that humans are not simply physical beings, but rather possess a divine spark that connects them to the divine source of all creation. He also discusses the importance of spiritual practice and the cultivation of virtues such as love, humility, and compassion in order to fulfill one's true purpose and contribute to the greater good. Throughout the book, Saint-Martin draws upon his own experiences and insights, as well as the teachings of various spiritual traditions, to offer a profound and inspiring vision of human potential and the meaning of life.Partial Contents: On Nature: Man, not outward Nature, the witness of Divinity; Marriage�������Man is God's book; Heaven taken by violence; man the mirror of God's wonders; The Universe in pain; Cause of Nature's groans; Birth of matter; Hypothesis of Jacob Bohme; Inhabitancy of Planets; Final Causes; Repose of Nature, the Soul, and the Word should come from Man; On Man: What is Spirit? man's origin; The Magism of God; Man, the continuation or recommencement of God; Door of Light and love in Man; How to attain God's Action; The Fall; Human institutions derive from above; Blood of clean animals; The Exodus; Law of Sacrifices; Three degrees of abominations; Mosaic law preparatory to spiritual law; Man delivered from prison of his blood; The Eucharist; Progress of individual man towards Canaan; The perfecting of our faculties hereafter requires sacrifice of all here; God's love and Man's insensibility; The work of the man of faith reacts on the whole tree of Man; On the Word: The Word sustains all things; The Words requires an apprenticeship; The true Cross; The substance of men's words; Power of the enemy during night; Duties, responsibilities, and misdirection of literary men; Religious literature; Gradations in Adam's fall; Demonstration of God and the soul; The sublime is God, and all that connects us with Him; Ministers of the Word withholding the key of knowledge; Desire, the principle of movement; Three degrees of the Word; Progressive names, states, and processes; Who should teach the deep things of God; Eternity in a point of time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
