Reconstruction In Theology

By Henry Churchill King

Book Overview

Reconstruction in Theology is a book written by Henry Churchill King, a prominent American theologian and philosopher. The book was first published in 1901 and has since become a classic in the field of theology.In Reconstruction in Theology, King argues that traditional Christian theology needs to be reconstructed in light of modern advances in science, philosophy, and culture. He believes that the old theological frameworks are no longer adequate to address the challenges of the modern world and that theology needs to be reimagined for the 20th century.The book is divided into three parts. The first part deals with the historical context of Christian theology and the need for reconstruction. The second part examines the various aspects of traditional theology that need to be rethought, including the nature of God, the problem of evil, and the relationship between faith and reason. The third part offers suggestions for how a reconstructed theology might look, including a renewed emphasis on the social implications of Christianity and a greater openness to other religious traditions.Throughout the book, King draws on a wide range of sources, from the Bible and Christian tradition to contemporary philosophy and science. He writes in a clear and accessible style, making complex theological concepts understandable to a general audience.Reconstruction in Theology is a groundbreaking work that continues to be relevant today. It challenges readers to think critically about their own theological beliefs and to consider how theology might be reconstructed for the 21st century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
