The Claims Of Christianity (1894)

The Claims of Christianity, written by William Samuel Lilly and first published in 1894, is a book that explores the fundamental beliefs and doctrines of the Christian faith. The author approaches the subject from a philosophical and historical perspective, examining the evidence for the existence of God, the divinity of Jesus Christ, and the reliability of the Bible as a source of spiritual guidance.Lilly begins by examining the concept of faith and its role in religious belief, arguing that faith is not a blind acceptance of dogma but a reasoned response to the evidence presented. He then delves into the historical evidence for the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, examining the reliability of the Gospel accounts and the impact of Jesus' life and teachings on the world.The author also addresses common objections to Christianity, including the problem of evil and the apparent contradictions in the Bible. He argues that these objections are not insurmountable and that Christianity offers a coherent and compelling worldview that can provide meaning and purpose to human life.Throughout the book, Lilly draws on his extensive knowledge of philosophy, theology, and history to present a comprehensive defense of the Christian faith. The Claims of Christianity is a thought-provoking and engaging work that will appeal to anyone interested in the intersection of faith and reason.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
