Book Overview

""Apologetic Lectures on the Fundamental Truths of Christianity: Delivered in Leipzig in the Winter of 1864"" is a book written by Christoph Ernst Luthardt and originally published in 1873. The book is a collection of lectures that were delivered by Luthardt in Leipzig in the winter of 1864. The lectures aim to defend the fundamental truths of Christianity against the criticisms and attacks of modern skepticism and rationalism. Luthardt, a German theologian, argues for the historical reliability of the Bible, the divinity of Christ, the reality of miracles, and the validity of Christian faith. He engages with the works of prominent skeptics and philosophers of his time, such as David Strauss and Ludwig Feuerbach, and critiques their arguments against Christianity. The book is divided into thirteen lectures, each covering a different aspect of Christian doctrine and apologetics. The lectures are written in a clear and accessible style, making them suitable for both scholars and lay readers. Luthardt's arguments are grounded in biblical exegesis and historical research, and he frequently cites the writings of early Christian theologians and the Church Fathers. Overall, ""Apologetic Lectures on the Fundamental Truths of Christianity"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Christian apologetics, theology, or the history of religious thought. It provides a compelling defense of the Christian faith and offers insights into the intellectual debates of the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
