This book offers insight into the pervasiveness of the doctrine of divine influence in Christian thought since its inception, arguing that it has been a source of much corruption within the faith. The author contends that there is no proper place for supernatural or miraculous intervention in the moral or spiritual lives of individuals, and that the efficacy of the Christian gospels rests entirely on their capacity to produce change through the agency of natural means. By examining how and why this idea entered Christian thinking, the author exposes its false premise and underlying dangers. An important book for anyone interested in the evolution of Christianity and the origins of its core beliefs.
