The author Christian Hermann Weisse describes Christianity in this volume. He extensively addresses the concept of religion, describes divine revelation, explains the historical development of the church's teaching concept, and the philosophical doctrine of faith of the Protestant Church. He dedicates detailed attention to theology, the biblical concept of God, and the biblical names of God, and elaborates on the concept of divine Trinity. In further chapters, Weisse discusses matter as the foundation of creation, the Holy Spirit, divine attributes, and many other theologically fascinating topics. Christian Hermann Weisse lived from 1801 to 1866. He was a Protestant theologian and late idealist philosopher.
