Product Description
Excerpt from The New Discussion of the Trinity: Containing Notices of Professor Huntington's Recent Defence of That Doctrine The following articles are mostly reprinted from various periodicals. The Sermon by Dr. Dewey, which closes the volume, has not been published before, and the Discourses by Mr. King are reprinted from a pamphlet. The occasion of all these papers was a sermon of Dr. Huntington, in which, after having occupied a Unitarian pulpit for a long number of years, he asserted and defended the Church doctrine of the Trinity. Such an event made it necessary for his brethren and friends in the Unitarian ranks to reconsider their position. When one so able and earnest as Dr. Huntington was led to renounce the doctrine they had so long preached in common, a due respect to him, as well as regard to the truth, required them to give a careful and patient attention to his reasons.

The New Discussion of the Trinity (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a pivotal theological debate of the 19th century sparked by a Unitarian minister's conversion to Trinitarianism. The author meticulously examines the ensuing controversy, scrutinizing arguments from both sides regarding the nature of God as presented in the Christian Bible. The discourse extends beyond a mere analysis of biblical texts; it delves into the historical evolution of the Trinity doctrine, tracing its roots from early Christian beliefs to its formalization in the 4th century. The author critically assesses the influence of figures like Athanasius and Augustine, as well as the impact of philosophical ideas on the shaping of this core Christian tenet. Central to the discussion is the concept of "Tripersonality" ΓΆβ β the belief in God as three co-equal persons. The author challenges this notion, arguing that it is not explicitly supported by scripture and emerged centuries after the origins of Christianity. Instead, the focus is placed on the original Christian understanding of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost as representing God's self-revelation and divine attributes, rather than distinct entities. By unraveling the historical and theological complexities surrounding the Trinity, this book offers valuable insights into the ongoing quest to comprehend the nature of the divine, shedding light on the diverse interpretations that have shaped Christian thought throughout history.
