Christianity Not Mysterious Or A Treatise Showing That There is Nothing in the Gospel Contrary to Reason, Nor Above It and That No Christian Doctrine (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162614380)

""Christianity Not Mysterious"" is a book written by John Toland, which aims to prove that there is nothing in the Gospel that contradicts reason or goes beyond it. The author argues that no Christian doctrine can be considered a mystery, as they are all based on rational explanations and can be understood by anyone who is willing to study them. Toland challenges the idea that faith requires blind acceptance of dogmas and encourages readers to think critically about their beliefs. The book is a response to the prevailing orthodoxy of the time, which claimed that certain aspects of Christianity were beyond human comprehension. Toland's work was controversial and sparked debates among theologians and philosophers. However, it remains an important text in the history of religious thought and a testament to the power of reason in understanding the world around us.1702. That the well-meaning Christian may not suspect that Mr. Toland aims at more than he declares, and cunningly disguises some bad principles under the pretense of defending the true religion, Mr. Toland writes this discourse with all the sincerity and simplicity imaginable, being as thoroughly convinced of what he maintains as he could be in any thing.
