The Truths Of Religion (1831)

Beschreibung

The Truths of Religion is a book written by James Douglas and first published in 1831. The book is a thorough examination of the principles and doctrines of Christianity, as well as an exploration of the relationship between religion and reason. Douglas argues that religion is not opposed to reason, but rather complements it, and that a true understanding of Christianity requires both faith and rational inquiry.The book is divided into several sections, each of which explores a different aspect of Christian belief. Douglas discusses the nature of God, the role of Jesus Christ in salvation, the importance of faith and good works, and the meaning of the Bible. He also addresses some of the common objections to Christianity, such as the problem of evil and the apparent contradictions in the Bible.Throughout the book, Douglas draws on a wide range of sources, including the Bible, the writings of theologians and philosophers, and his own personal experiences. He argues that Christianity offers a coherent and compelling worldview that can provide meaning and purpose in life, and that it is a source of comfort and hope in times of difficulty.Overall, The Truths of Religion is a thoughtful and insightful exploration of the principles and doctrines of Christianity. It is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of the Christian faith, and for those who are curious about the relationship between religion and reason.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

He lives with his wife Karen, who is also a retired teacher, as well as their youngest daughter. The couple also has four older children. Jim has always had a consuming love for the outdoors and to this day, continues to hunt, fish, trap and train hunting dogs.His first connection to writing creatively came in the 1960's when his English teacher told him he had a knack for writing. Although Jim was not a model student, the compliment always stayed with him. When he was eighteen he started to play the guitar and immediately began to write his own songs because it just seemed the natural thing to do. Over the years, other poems and writings were created.In the early 1980's, his first magazine article called "How I Train a Coon Dog" was published and when letters started coming in from all over North America, it had a very positive impact upon his life. The next article he wrote was in the late 1990's and it also was published. The 800 and some dollars he received for this one again was also a positive. Could it be true that his English teacher from long ago had been right?After retirement, he wrote the introduction of a story and read it to his friend, Wayne. The friend listened and then looked at him and said, "Great beginning. I want to hear the rest of the story. Write a book."The challenge was accepted and a few months later a novel called 'Vigliante Justice' was finished and the characters of Davie Meadows, Katrina, Barbara and Griz had been created. This book was followed up with a sequel called 'Sharpshooter: The Sins of Greed'. Jim continues to write, and more novels are on the horizon, soon to be published.As well as writing, Jim continues to train dogs, substitute teach, hunt, fish, trap and participate in the activities that the forests and streams offer up. He loves to teach others, especially his grandchildren, about the natural world he loves.
