Synopsis
Excerpt from Theology as an Empirical Science
Theology, in its days of undisputed supremacy, was defined as the science Of God. Of late, under the stress of much hostile criticism, there has been a strategic retreat, and the definitions generally favored are modest statements to the effect that theology is the intellectual expression of religion. The general situation, however, has come to be such as calls for a counter attack, having as its objective the recovery of a scientific status for theology, and a much stronger and more secure consolida tion of this scientific position than originally existed.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This thought-provoking book challenges the common misconception that theology is inherently unscientific. The author argues that, just like the physical and social sciences, theology can be grounded in empirical knowledge gained through religious experience. By examining historical and contemporary theological methods, the book explores how theology can establish its validity and become a part of science. It critically analyzes traditionalistic, rationalistic, and empirical approaches, concluding that an empirical method based on free agency, the possibility of immortality, and the reality of sin and its consequences offers the most viable path forward. Through a detailed examination of the nature of God, the person of Christ, and the work of the Holy Spirit, the book provides a framework for understanding theology as an empirical science. This insightful work challenges readers to rethink the relationship between faith and knowledge, offering a compelling argument for the scientific study of religious experience. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330343364_0
