Divine In The Human

""The Divine In The Human"" is a philosophical and theological treatise written by James Martineau, a renowned British Unitarian theologian, in 1893. The book explores the relationship between God and humanity, arguing that the divine is present in every human being. Martineau argues that the divine is not something external to humanity, but rather an inherent part of human nature. He discusses the concept of the divine spark, which he believes is present in every individual and is the source of human morality and spirituality. Martineau also explores the implications of this view for religious belief, arguing that traditional conceptions of God as a separate entity are inadequate. Instead, he proposes a more personal and intimate understanding of the divine, one that emphasizes the importance of human experience and individual conscience. Throughout the book, Martineau draws on a wide range of philosophical and theological sources, including the works of Immanuel Kant, Friedrich Schleiermacher, and Ralph Waldo Emerson. ""The Divine In The Human"" is a thought-provoking and challenging work that continues to be of interest to scholars and readers interested in the intersection of religion, philosophy, and human nature.THIS 86 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The Seat of Authority in Religion, by James Martineau.
