Breaking the Biblical Mold: Reconciling Faith and Reason in the Age of Critical Christianity

by C. L. Danielson

Overview

Breaking the Biblical Mold: Reconciling Faith and Reason in the Age of Critical Christianity questions whether one can point out the Bible's inaccuracies and still remain a Christian. C. L. Danielson explores whether it's possible to follow the metaphorical message behind Jesus' teachings, even when acknowledging that many biblical stories may not be historically true. Through examining four categories of biblical inaccuracies-chronological, genealogical, theological, and historical-this book invites readers to rethink traditional scripture interpretations.
Venturing beyond the Bible, this book investigates excluded texts, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and examines how God is often referred to in the plural. It questions traditional views on the fall of Lucifer and unpacks the Bible's role as a tool of historical deception. This book is an exploration of how faith can evolve through critical examination. Using AI to perfect research and articulation, C. L. Danielson has crafted a thought-provoking work that provides new insights into scripture and the intersection of faith and reason.
