Christ Condemned: On the Incarnation and the Trinity
Listing Details
Christ Condemned is a critical examination of the fundamental doctrines of Christianity, following in the long tradition of employing philosophy to understand and defend the teachings of Scripture. These doctrines are proven from the absolute necessity practical reason has for a solution to the problem of sin. This is inspired by the work of Immanuel Kant. As Kant proved that the existence of God is a necessary postulate of practical reason, to persevere in one's duty, so also the Incarnation and the Trinity are necessary to repent, to turn from sin to righteousness. These doctrines are illuminated in twelve propositions. Each proposition is first proven by reason, then by Scripture. The Scripture proofs not only demonstrate the doctrine itself, but also the reason for its truth.
