9781468011968: Robert Lewis Dabney Collection: The Christian Sabbath & Sensualistic Philosophy

Synopsis

Its two books in one! The Robert Lewis Dabney Collection brings together two of the Southern Presbyterian theologian’s writings: The Christian Sabbath and Sensualistic Philosophy. Although written in the nineteenth century, Dabney’s topics are relevant today. In The Christian Sabbath, Dabney defends the necessity of a day of rest to both honor God and for societal cohesiveness. In Sensualistic Philosophy, Dabney engages secular philosophers of his day, including Condillac and Comte, as a champion of the Christian worldview. Alacrity Press is proud to reprint these two theological classics within a single volume.
