The Evidence of Christianity: Derived from Its Nature and Reception (Classic Reprint)

By J B Sumner

Book Overview

The Evidence of Christianity: Derived from Its Nature and Reception is a book written by John Bird Sumner and first published in 1824. The book is a comprehensive examination of the evidence for the truth of Christianity, based on both its nature and the reception it has received over time.Sumner argues that Christianity is unique among religions in its claims and teachings, and that these claims and teachings are supported by a wealth of evidence from history, philosophy, and the natural world. He also examines the reception of Christianity over the centuries, arguing that its enduring popularity and influence are further evidence of its truth.Throughout the book, Sumner engages with the arguments of skeptics and critics of Christianity, and provides detailed responses to their objections. He also explores the role of faith in the Christian life, and the relationship between faith and reason.Overall, The Evidence of Christianity is a thoughtful and well-reasoned defense of the Christian faith, and remains a significant work of Christian apologetics to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
