Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
Wells describes his aim as to state "as forcibly and exactly as possible the religious belief of the writer." He distinguishes his religious beliefs from Christianity, and warns readers that he is "particularly uncompromising" on the doctrine of the Trinity, which he blames on "the violent ultimate crystallization of Nicaea." He pleads for a "modern religion" or "renascent religion" that has "no revelation and no founder." Wells rejects any belief related to God as Nature or the Creator, confining himself to the "finite" God "of the human heart." He devotes a chapter to misconceptions about God that are due to mistaken "mental elaboration" as opposed to "heresies of speculation," and says that the God in which he believes has nothing to do with magic, providence, quietism, punishment, the threatening of children, or sexual ethics Positively, in a chapter entitled "The Likeness of God," he states his belief that God is courage, a person, youth (i.e. forward- rather than backward-looking), and love. Wells finds in scientific atheists like Metchnikoff beliefs that are equivalent to what he regards as "the fundamental proposition of religious translated into terms of materialistic science, the proposition that damnation is really over-individuation and that salvation is escape from self into the larger being of life." In God the Invisible King, Wells regards belief in God as welling up from within the individual: "if you do not feel God then there is no persuading you of him; we cannot win over the incredulous." The book argues that God seeks "the conquest of death," through a struggle to "transform the world into a theocracy" that he regards as "more and more manifestly the real future of mankind," not through suffering or non-resistance. Sin is seen not as bad conduct but as the product of disharmonies of "the inner being" that "snatch us away from our devotion to God's service" and such weaknesses "cannot damn a man once he has found God." A final seventh chapter rejects the idea that "the new religion" can or should be organised into a church: "Whatever religious congregations men may form henceforth in the name of the true God must be for their own sakes and not to take charge of religion." In a section titled "The State Is God's Instrument," Wells speaks of a coming "theocracy" and argues that in the probably not too distant future "Religion which is free, speaking freely through whom it will, subject to a perpetual unlimited criticism, will be the life and driving power of the whole organised world.

Pages : 0
Book Description
H.G. Wells, the famend science fiction writer, ventured into the area of theology and spirituality with his book "God the Invisible King,". This painting marked a departure from Wells' standard literary endeavors, as he delved into questions of faith, faith, and the character of God. In "God the Invisible King," Wells embarks on a considerate exploration of the concept of God. He stocks his non-public religious journey, revealing a departure from conventional religious doctrines even as maintaining a deep sense of spirituality. Wells grapples with the concept of a divine presence that may not necessarily conform to traditional non-secular dogmas but maintains to persuade the universe and human life. Throughout the book, Wells engages with the demanding situations posed through technology and reason to set up spiritual beliefs, advocating for a more modern, summary know-how of God. He underscores the need for a religious and moral framework to manual humanity in an unexpectedly evolving world driven by means of clinical and technological advancements. Wells' "God the Invisible King" represents a departure from his well-known technology fiction paintings, presenting readers an extraordinary angle on religion and spirituality. The book displays Wells' highbrow curiosity and his search for an extra inclusive and modern interpretation of God.

Book Description
And it may further be suggested that the extreme aloofness and inhumanity, which is logically necessary in the idea of a Creator God, of an Infinite God, was the reason, so to speak, for the invention of a Holy Spirit, as something proceeding from him, as something bridging the great gulf, a Comforter, a mediator descending into the sphere of the human understanding. That, and the suggestive influence of the Egyptian Trinity that was then being worshipped at the Serapeum, and which had saturated the thought of Alexandria with the conception of a trinity in unity, are probably the realities that account for the Third Person of the Christian Trinity. At any rate the present writer believes that the discussions that shaped the Christian theology we know were dominated by such natural and fundamental thoughts.
