- Synopsis
- Father Peter Sullivan in Christ the Answer presents a Catholic apologetic for why Jesus Christ is the answer for people in the modern world. He begins his discussion by explaining the philosophical, scientific, rational and ontological reasons for the existence of God. After this, he explains why Christ is God by exploring the truth of the gospels and the veracity of the gospel writers. In his exegesis, he discusses the unique qualities of Christ, His own revelation of His divinity and the nature of His death and resurrection. These points further point to Christ's divinity. Sullivan's ends his discussion by presenting reasons why belief in Christ and following His teachings will help to solve humankind's existential crisis and moral decay. In support of this premise, he discusses the modern day occurrences in Fatima and Lourdes. This book examines the reasons for unbelief and provides rational explanations. His extensive footnotes and references substantiate his points and provide readers with ways to get additional information. Even though this work is scholastic, it is written in a straightforward manner so that non-academic readers are able to understand the material. In addition, he gives study outlines and summaries for each chapter to help readers better navigate the content. For more sophisticated readers, the work ends with two appendixes on science and God. Even though this book is written by a Catholic, much of its content is of interest and of value to non-Catholic readers as well.
