Book Overview

Ingersoll Answered: An Examination Of His Discourse Entitled, What Must I Do To Be Saved? is a book written by Joseph Parker in 1881. The book is a critical analysis of a discourse given by Robert G. Ingersoll, a prominent American orator and agnostic, on the topic of salvation. In this discourse, Ingersoll argued against the traditional Christian belief in salvation through faith in Jesus Christ, and instead advocated for a more secular and humanistic approach to morality and ethics.Parker, a British theologian and pastor, sets out to refute Ingersoll's arguments and defend the Christian doctrine of salvation. He examines Ingersoll's discourse point by point, offering counterarguments and biblical references to support his position. Parker also addresses some of the broader philosophical and theological issues raised by Ingersoll's discourse, such as the nature of God, the problem of evil, and the relationship between faith and reason.Ingersoll Answered is a well-researched and thought-provoking book that provides a valuable insight into the debates surrounding religion and morality in the late 19th century. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of religious thought and the development of modern secularism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
