"Pax Vobiscum" by Henry Drummond is a Christian spiritual treatise published in the late 19th century. This book explores the deeper meaning of rest and joy within the framework of Christian experiences, arguing that these states are the result of specific causes rather than mere gifts from faith. Drummond aims to connect profound religious concepts with the daily lives of believers, providing practical insights into achieving inner peace and fulfillment. In "Pax Vobiscum," Drummond emphasizes that rest and joy are not instantaneous gifts but require one to learn certain principles embodied by Christ, specifically meekness and lowliness of heart. He discusses the significance of understanding how spiritual effects arise from corresponding causes, much like how certain conditions lead to physical fruits. By illustrating his points with biblical teachings, including the invitation of Christ to find rest and learn from Him, Drummond emphasizes the necessity of engaging actively in a learning process to achieve a deeply rewarding and serene Christian life. The book serves as a guide to understanding personal and communal religious experiences and aims to inspire readers to seek the sources of true joy and rest through intentional practice and faith.
