SynopsisDoes being a Christian in the modern scientific age require intellectual suicide? What future for Christianity in the Third Millennium? In God, Faith and the New Millennium Keith Ward has produced a powerful and upbeat study of Christian belief that tackles questions such as these head on. In what he describes as a summary of his life's work on Christianity, religion and science, Ward's new and positive interpretation presents a Christian faith in harmony with the scientific worldview while remaining true to its traditions. This is a cutting-edge study that will provoke and inspire every Christian and anyone interested in the debate on the role of faith in the modern world. Through his examination of key issues such as Creation, evolution and the divine purpose, Ward demonstrates that there is a 'natural fit' between the scientific worldview and mainstream Christian beliefs - Christian faith gives insight into the meaning and purpose of the universe, the physical structure of which modern science has marvellously discovered., Does being a Christian in the modern scientific age require intellectual suicide? What future for Christianity in the Third Millennium?, In this text, Keith Ward looks at what might be called a mainstream Christian worldview, and examines how it could reasonably and non-hypocritically be interpreted given a full aceptance of scientific beliefs, for the beginning of a new millennium. Ward also explores the compatability between the God of physics, the cause of the universe, and the God of worship and prayer, and the relationship between Christianity and the other world faiths.
