Cassels, Walter R.
Supernatural Religion, Vol. 1 (of 3)
An Inquiry into the Reality of Divine Revelation
Produced by David Widger
"Supernatural Religion, Vol. 1 (of 3)" by Walter Richard Cassels is a theological treatise written in the late 19th century. This work delves into the implications of divine revelation, scrutinizing the historical reliability of the Gospels while mounting philosophical arguments against the credibility of miracles. It appears to challenge traditional Christian beliefs, suggesting that they are not firmly supported by historical evidence, thereby prompting re-evaluations of Christian apologetics. The opening of the volume sets a scholarly tone, with the author emphasizing his intention to address critiques he has received since the work's initial publication. Cassels outlines his methodology, including a systematic examination of the Gospels and earlier church writings, to argue that the historical evidence supporting the occurrence of miracles is insufficient. He discusses the philosophical perspectives on divine revelation, stating that many scholars have begun to question previously held beliefs in miracles and urges for a reconstruction of the Christian argument based on contemporary philosophical and historical analysis. The prefaces serve as a critical foundation, indicating a rigorous approach that aims to engage readers who may hold differing views on the authenticity of Christian narratives.
