Book Overview
The Reconstruction of Resurrection Belief articulates an alternative understanding of resurrection faith as essentially a response of trust based upon a knowledge by acquaintance with the living presence of Christ today. As Carnley says: "We do not have to prove that the Sydney Opera House was built and opened on 20 October 1973 in order to perceive and actively participate in and enjoy the form of life that currently goes on in it." This book seeks to articulate an understanding of the nature of resurrection faith in the language of today, with as much logical coherence as possible, in the hope that it may have some traction in the increasingly secular world of contemporary scientific materialism. It faces the key challenge of seeking to explain how the claim that the animating Spirit of the Christian community that Saint Paul spoke of as "the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus" (Rom 8.2) may be justifiably identified in faith today as "the living presence of Jesus of Nazareth."
