Using philosophical and theological reflection, this book explores
the rational grounding for Christian faith, inquiring into the
basis for believing the Christian revelation, and using the answers
to give an account of Christian faith itself. Setting the
discussion in the context of the history of views on revelation,
Divine Faith makes an original contribution to historiography and
draws out hitherto unnoticed affinities between Catholic and
Protestant thought. Re-examining the question from the beginning by
asking how it is that the Christian revelation is made, Lamont then
looks at the fundamental philosophical issues concerning the nature
of knowledge and the reasonableness of belief in testimony that are
crucial to an understanding of Christian belief. Through
theological considerations on the relations of grace and the
church, and new advances in the philosophy of belief in testimony
and how God speaks to communicate the Christian religion, this book
offers an original and powerful account of the nature of Christian
belief.
