O knihe

2019 Reprint of 1955 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition software. In this book Dr. Van Til outlines his understanding of what the Reformed Faith is and how it should be defended and propagated. In so doing he at the same time replies in detail to his various critics. Van Til seeks to discover the most biblical and effective way to present Christ to unbelievers. Along the way, Van Til contrasts his position with that of Roman Catholicism and the neo-orthodoxy of Karl Barth and his followers. Part One is entitled "The Structure of My Thought" and Part Two is "Objections Considered." Van Til also uses the Introduction to respond to his critics. The primary purpose of the book is to provide '"a method of defending Christianity which is consistent with the nature of Christianity." The Defense of the Faith is among his most noted writings. Contents: Part one. The structure of my thought. Introduction -- Christian theology -- The Christian philosophy of reality -- The Christian philosophy of knowledge -- The Christian philosophy of behaviour -- Christian apologetics (point of contact) -- Christian apologetics (the problem of method) -- Christian apologetics (authority and reason) -- Common grace and scholasticism -- Part two.
