Excerpt from Theology as Science: And Its Present Position and Prospects in the Reformed Church
For the same reason I have also added the Inaugural Lecture delivered three years ago, when I entered upon my work in this University. Under the pressure of my duties at the time, I did not think of publishing it then, according to the usual custom, and it is reproduced here, not only because of its relevancy as so far completing this discussion, but because some passages had to be omitted during its delivery from want of time, on account of which it was not wholly reported.
I have preserved the direct forms of address, because my primary aim is to put these Lectures into the hands of my students as a sort of general introduction to theological thinking, and to be relieved of the need of repeating them in the class-room. But others who are interested in our work may be also interested in this comparatively full exposition of the theological standpoint on which it is conducted.

Theology as Science (Classic Reprint)
Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book begins by addressing Christianity's theological position in the wake of recent bereaved loss and how theology must continue in response to this and other challenges. The author argues that theology should be considered a science that serves to understand, through historical and philosophical methodologies, the concept of God. Theology, the author argues, is a fact-based, rational approach, and its historical arm, the examination of the development of religion, proves that religion is a universal concept among the peoples of the world. However, the author's true aim is to move beyond mere historical accounting into the realm of philosophical theology and the objective understanding of God's nature. The author sees this as a fundamental goal and the most significant function of theology in general, an understanding of the ultimate and eternal truth of the existence of an omnipotent being. Throughout the text, the author grapples with the difficulty of understanding this concept and the issues that arise when seeking an objective, rational, and systematic understanding of the nature of God. The book takes on the formidable task of grounding the concept of God in historical fact through philosophical inquiry, and by doing so, hopes to establish theology's place as a science while inviting the reader to engage in this same philosophical quest. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
