The Remnant is a book written by Rufus Matthew Jones and first published in 1920. The book explores the concept of a spiritual remnant, which is a group of individuals who have maintained a deep and authentic relationship with God despite the pressures of modern society. Jones argues that this remnant is essential to the spiritual health of humanity and that it has played a critical role in the history of religion.The book is divided into three parts. In the first part, Jones provides an overview of the concept of the remnant and its historical significance. He discusses the role of the remnant in the Old and New Testaments, as well as in the history of Quakerism, which was Jones' own religious tradition.In the second part of the book, Jones examines the characteristics of the remnant. He argues that the remnant is characterized by a deep and abiding faith, a commitment to social justice, and a willingness to challenge the status quo. He also discusses the challenges that the remnant faces in modern society, including materialism, secularism, and the pressures of conformity.In the final part of the book, Jones explores the future of the remnant. He argues that the remnant will continue to play a critical role in the spiritual life of humanity, but that it must adapt to changing circumstances in order to remain relevant. He also discusses the challenges that the remnant will face in the future, including the rise of technology and the increasing complexity of modern society.Overall, The Remnant is a thought-provoking exploration of the concept of a spiritual remnant and its significance in the history and future of religion. Jones' writing is clear and accessible, making the book suitable for both scholars and general readers interested in spirituality and religious history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
