Publisher's Synopsis
""Nature and the Supernatural as Together Constituting the One System of God"" is a philosophical and theological work by Horace Bushnell. The book explores the relationship between nature and the supernatural, arguing that they are not separate entities but rather integral parts of a unified system created by God. Bushnell's thesis is that the natural world is not a separate realm from the supernatural, but rather a manifestation of the divine. He argues that God is present in all aspects of creation, from the smallest atom to the grandest galaxy. The book also delves into the relationship between faith and reason, arguing that both are necessary for a complete understanding of the divine. Bushnell's writing is both rigorous and poetic, blending scientific inquiry with spiritual insight. Overall, this book provides a thought-provoking exploration of the nature of God and the relationship between the natural and supernatural worlds.1866.
