Does God exist? The question implies Who is God? This book is meant to give an answer to both questions and to give reasons for this answer. Does God exist? Yes or no? Many are at a loss between belief and unbelief; they are undecided, skeptical. They are doubtful about their belief, but they are also doubtful about their doubting. There are still others who are proud of their doubting. Yet there remains a longing for certainty. Certainty? Whether Christians or Jews, believers in God or atheists, the discussion today runs right across old denominations and new ideologies - but the longing for certainty is unquenched. Does God exist? We are putting all our cards on the table here. The answer will be "Yes, God exists," As human beings in the twentieth century, we certainly can reasonably believe in God - even more so in the Christian God - and perhaps even more easily today than a few decades or centuries ago. For, after so many crises, it is surprising how much has been clarified and how many difficulties in regard to belief in God have melted into the Light that no darkness has overcome.
Does God exist, and if so, how can a modern individual reasonably affirm this belief in the face of contemporary skepticism? Hans Küng, a prominent theologian, addresses the pervasive uncertainty of the twentieth century by examining the intellectual and existential barriers to faith. He synthesizes historical, philosophical, and theological arguments to propose that belief in God is not only rational but perhaps more accessible in the modern era than in previous centuries.
What You Will Find
The text presents a dense, scholarly inquiry into the foundations of faith, intended for readers seeking a rigorous intellectual defense of theism. It functions as a comprehensive apologetic work that balances theological tradition with the specific challenges posed by twentieth-century secular thought.
