Description

Grand Rapids, MI, U.S.A.: William B. Eerdmans Publishing Company, 1969. Usual library markings. Binding is tight and some text is marked and underlined. Spine and corners show some signs of wear. The Christian gospel has always been subject to attack, from inside as well as from outside the church. The author outlines the actual ways in which Christianity, faced with particular situations which called for defense, responded to these challenges; and with what results. The author proceeds historically, keeping in mind four questions: 1) What does Apologetics defend? 2) Can apologetics be faithful to the faith? 3) Against whom or what is the defense to be conducted? 4) How is the defense to be conducted? Thus he provides both an historical record of apologetics as it has actually been practiced, and a clarification of the principles of apologetics. Both aspects of the study are essential to contemporary apologetics, confronted by new challenges and demands. 224 pgs.. Trade Paperback. Good/No Jacket. Ex-Library.
