A Short and Easy Method With the Deists: Wherein the Certainty of the Christian Religion Is Demonstrated by Infallible Proof From Four Rules, Which ... or That Can Possibly Be (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
A Short and Easy Method With the Deists is a historical religious tract that argues for the certainty of Christianity through four infallible rules and calls readers to trust private judgment guided by scripture.
It challenges the idea that church authority alone can decide matters of faith and pushes readers toward personal examination and reason.
The work examines how different groups—Jews, Christians, and deists—shape their beliefs, and it contrasts reliance on holy texts with obedience to institutional authority. It presents a rigorous, if combative, case for weighing evidence directly and using reason to discern truth without surrendering thought to a single intermediary.- Learn how the author frames faith as a personal judgment grounded in scripture.
- See discussions on the limits of church authority and the role of private judgment.
- Explore how arguments from reason interact with religious tradition and revelation.
- Understand the historical debate around how people come to believe and how truth is established.

A Short and Easy Method With the Deists (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This thought-provoking book uses the concept of comparing Apollo Tyanaeus to our Blessed Saviour as a way to demonstrate the truth of Christianity and refute the ideas of the Deists. The author claims that all matters of fact must be proven true by certain rules and that the resurrection of Jesus Christ holds up to these rules, unlike the stories of Apollo Tyanaeus or the fabricated stories from other religions. The author argues that no false religion could produce genuine miracles and that the Deists, while quick to mock miracles, unwittingly subject themselves to a standard they cannot possibly meet. This book concludes by emphasizing the importance of Christianity to our very souls and bodies, maintaining that it is a religion that both converts the heart and brings eternal rewards. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
