The Ritschlian Theology and the Evangelical Faith is a book written by James Orr and published in 1897. The book is a critical analysis of the theological system developed by Albrecht Ritschl, a German theologian who sought to reconcile Christian faith with modern scientific and philosophical thought. Orr argues that Ritschl's theology is fundamentally flawed because it separates faith from reason and emphasizes subjective experience over objective truth. He also critiques Ritschl's rejection of the supernatural and his denial of the divinity of Christ. Orr defends the traditional evangelical faith, which he sees as grounded in the Bible and the historic creeds of the Christian church. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Christian theology and the ongoing debate between faith and reason.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Based on the Stone Lectures at Princeton, this apologetic carefully distinguishes between biblical teaching, modern anthropology, and movements throughout church history.

This volume represents the Morgan Lectures delivered at Auburn Theological Seminary in New York in October 1897. The advances in the history of Christianity have come about not so much from the discovery of new materials--though of these also unremitting research has yielded an abundant supply--as from the new historical temper in which scholars have approached their task; from the fresh power acquired of reading aright the meaning of the data already possessed, and of setting them in new lights and relations; from increased skill in coligating them, and in interpreting the significance of unnoticed details in their bearing on an entire situation--in which lies so much of the higher art of the historian. Just as the naturalist is reputed to be able from a single bone to reconstruct the form of some creature of the past, so our modern scholars aim at showing that the minutest fact is not isolated, but stands in organic relation with the all-pervading life of the time; and from comparison of the facts they seek to re-create for us a picture whose justification is its verisimilitude, and its power of interpreting the sum-total of the phenomena. --from Lecture One
