Synopsis

A fresh look at belief, duty, and what drives religious life. This concise study examines how belief forms, whether salvation by faith truly compels action, and how personal judgment shapes religious life.

Drawing on a historical sweep from the Protestant Reformation to modern thought, the book argues that belief is often involuntary while action remains the true test of character. It questions creeds as a sole measure of faith and invites readers to consider a universal standard for moral conduct across traditions.

• Why belief can be involuntary and what that means for morality and accountability.


• How the Reformation shifted ideas about authority, individual judgment, and free inquiry.


• What makes a religious life meaningful beyond creeds and doctrines.


• Connections between conscience, social change, and universal moral law.

Ideal for readers of theology, philosophy, and history who want a clear, historically grounded look at how belief and duty interact across faiths.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue.
