T The heroic efforts of church builders in these centuries [1000-1300] reflect a society deeply imbued with Christian devotion, with the belief that it should be expressed in visible building, with a sense of sin and judgment that could only be expiated by immensely generous gifts to fabric funds, in awe of a divine being who rejoiced in the beauty of human craftsmanship and welcomed the dedication of all that was richest and best to His own worship. But this inspiring statement hides a deeper truth: that in this society, as in all, there was much variety of approach and faith and sentiment; that there were many who protested, or happily ignored the collect- ing boxes; that there were many who gave lavishly to one church while trying to destroy another." 200.09020760700931 Perpustakaan STTB Bandung Theological Seminary 200.090 2 Bro p E08000707 Non Fiction 200.090 2 Bro p 5.jpg 49710 2014-12-11 08:36:43 2024-11-02 08:47:39 machine generated
