Lectures on Theology like the present one naturally commences with, is the subject of Evidence. I shall not, however, enter into the consideration of the general fabric of the Christian Evidences, which is well known to you from the works of many able writers who have devoted themselves to that subject. I shall be doing perhaps something more useful if I call attention to some particular danger connected with the subject of evidence at this day, and endeavour to throw some light on the way in which it is to be met. A part from, and quite independently of, the particular arguments which unbelievers may use, it is to be observed that the mere existence of a large body of unbelief around us is itself a danger and a disturbance to us. It impresses the imagination. Such mere quantity of unbelief seems to be an argument in itself against revelation. We are perpetually reminded of it in the books of the day, in newspapers and reviews. It does not allow itself to be passed over; it obtrudes itself upon us at every turn; we cannot help observing it. All this affects the imagination. Unbelief is a great fact; it arrests us, and takes hold of our minds as such. It has a 1T he first of an official course of lectures delivered in the Latin Chapel, Christ Church, Oxford.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents a series of lectures, exploring a significant theological concept and its relevance to the Christian faith. The author places special focus on a danger presented by widespread modern unbelief, arguing that it distorts our understanding of Christianity when proper consideration is not given to the emotional and spiritual affections which influence our capacity for belief. The author argues that reason and affections are inseparable in our formation of belief, and that the testimonies of our inner lives can be just as valid for spiritual truths as our intellects are for external facts. The book also critiques the perspective that the evidence for Christianity is weak or overly dependent on obscure metaphysical concepts, presenting the case for a robust and rational basis for the Christian faith. Addressing themes of evidence, miracles, and the enduring truths of Christian doctrine, this book unpacks the Christian belief system and will appeal to readers seeking a nuanced and thought -provokingexploration of its foundations.
