Faith And Morals - I.--Faith as Ritschl defined it. II.--The moral law as understood in Romanism and Protestantism Introduction by the Translator This address, originally delivered in October 1890, only a few months after Ritschl's death, has here and there the tone of an oration on the departed master and friend. Professor Herrmann sees in Ritschl the champion of simplicity and honesty against a prevailing professionalism and formalism; and he holds that Ritschl's battle-cry was just Luther's. Faith, according to both, is not belief in any Church or in any doctrine; it is neither assent to the truth of the narratives of Scripture, nor is it acceptance of propositions in theology. It is a spiritual experience of an overpowering revelation of God, and this revelation comes to man through the circumstances in which he realises, in his own life, contact with the inner life of Jesus Christ.
