Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Philosophy of Unbelief in Morals and Religion, as Discoverable in the Faith and Character of Men, Vol. 5 Numbers live in the neglect of religion, without knowing or considering the cause of their indifference to it. They profess to receive the Bible as the word of God, and if they do so, their conduct is inexplicable and opposed to all reason and analogy. There is, therefore, ground for presuming they are in error on this point; and if they are so, it is indispensable that they should be undeceived, as a first step to a correct understanding of their spiritual condition. This incongruity between the accredited faith and the conduct of men is so common, and in degrees so various, that it is to be feared we are ceasing to regard it as an exception to a general law - as something monstrous in practice - and are satisfying ourselves with the virtue of acknowledging it, or perhaps of declaiming against it, while we take not the trouble to inquire into the reason and enormity of it. This inquiry the author has endeavoured to conduct - with good design he knows - with what good effect he leaves for the reader to judge.
