Description
Richard Swinburne presents a compelling philosophical case for the main doctrines of Christianity regarding God. He argues that if there is a God, then it is very probable that certain key Christian teachings are true.
The author explores the idea that Jesus, as God, acquired a human nature and lived on earth for thirty years as a human being. Swinburne examines the philosophical support for this concept and its implications for our understanding of God's nature and actions.
He also considers the possibility that Jesus' life was atonement for humanity's wrongdoing, and that he taught us how to live and shared his plans for our future after death. This thought-provoking book offers a unique perspective on the Christian faith and its central figure.
