"The Truth of Christianity" by W. H. Turton is a treatise on Christian evidences written in the late 19th to early 20th century. The work examines the major arguments for and against belief in Christianity, presenting a systematic approach to the discussion of religious truths, focusing on foundational concepts such as the existence of God, the design of the universe, and the nature of man. It aims to provide a logical framework supporting the credibility of Christian beliefs while addressing opposing viewpoints with reasoned arguments. At the start of the text, Turton sets the stage for his exploration by presenting his thesis that the universe had a creator, which he elaborates through philosophical and scientific reasoning. He introduces the concept of a "Free Force" that initiated existence, arguing against the notion of an eternal universe without origin. As he delves into subsequent chapters, the author promises to build a case that not only defends the design argument—highlighting aspects of the universe that point to intentional design—but also addresses objections raised by contemporary scientific theories such as evolution and free will, ultimately asserting that these concepts bolster rather than undermine the foundational truths of Christianity.
