Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the profound connection between Christian principles and morality, exploring how they intertwine and inform one another. The author argues that a lack of understanding or appreciation of this connection is a primary factor behind indifference to religion and the specific evidence supporting Christianity. The book is positioned within the historical context of theological debates regarding the role of reason and revelation in religious belief. The author examines ethical theories that attempt to explain the origin of our moral sentiments, and he critically analyzes those that undermine the connection between religion and morality. He particularly addresses the theory that reduces virtue to a principle of general benevolence, exploring its implications for our understanding of religious obligation. The book presents a compelling case for the inherent reasonableness of gratitude to God as a foundation for moral obligation. It highlights how the Christian religion appeals to our moral judgments, urging us to demonstrate gratitude through our actions towards others. This exploration extends to the question of miracles, arguing that a clear understanding of our moral responsibility to God is essential for a rational evaluation of the credibility of the scriptural accounts. The author emphasizes that Christianity not only appeals to reason, but also demands a measure of implicit belief in its specific doctrines. This thought-provoking book challenges readers to consider the fundamental principles of religion and morality, offering a powerful perspective on how they are inextricably linked and essential for a fulfilling life.
