Doctrine of the Trinity : Founded Neither on Scripture, Nor on Reason and Common Sense, but on Tradition and the Infallible Church

The book titled ""The Doctrine of the Trinity: Founded Neither on Scripture, Nor on Reason and Common Sense, but on Tradition and the Infallible Church"" is written by William Hamilton Drummond. The book is a critical examination of the doctrine of the Trinity, which is a central tenet of Christianity. The author argues that the doctrine is not based on either scripture or reason, but rather on tradition and the infallibility of the church.Drummond begins by tracing the history of the doctrine of the Trinity, from its origins in the early church to its development and codification in the Nicene Creed. He then proceeds to critique the doctrine, arguing that it is not only unsupported by scripture and reason, but also leads to logical contradictions and inconsistencies.The author challenges the traditional view of the Trinity, which posits that God is one being in three distinct persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. He argues that this view is incoherent and fails to make sense of the biblical data. Instead, Drummond proposes an alternative understanding of the nature of God, which he believes is more consistent with both scripture and reason.Overall, ""The Doctrine of the Trinity"" is a thought-provoking and challenging book that will be of interest to anyone interested in the history of Christian theology and the nature of God.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
