Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the heart of higher education, exploring the fundamental principles that should guide college education. The author, a minister, argues that a true college education cannot be solely based on the pursuit of knowledge for its own sake, but must be rooted in a profound and positive faith in Jesus Christ. The book positions this argument within the context of the 19th century, a time when the rise of science and reason challenged traditional religious beliefs. This tension between faith and reason is a recurring theme in the book, which seeks to demonstrate how faith in Christ provides a unifying framework for all areas of study, from mathematics and natural sciences to philosophy and theology. The author meticulously dissects the limitations of human reason, highlighting its inability to fully grasp ultimate truths. He contends that faith, a fundamental capacity of the human mind, serves as the crucial bridge between the human and divine, allowing individuals to embrace the incomprehensible mysteries of God's existence. The book's insights offer a timeless perspective on the purpose of higher education, reminding us that the true goal of learning is not merely to amass knowledge but to cultivate a mind and heart guided by faith in a higher power.
