5.0 out of 5 stars The book that answers the question, "Is there a God?" 2 Oct 1996
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
Is there a God? For centuries, man has searched for an answer. As one of the brightest and most influential Christian philosopher and evangelist of this century, Schaeffer presents an encyclopedic account of the answers offered by western philosophers and theologians from the time of Plato to the humanistic and existential movements of this century. On the basis of that analysis alone, this book is worth its weight in gold. But Schaeffer takes us one step further. He offers, not just the best, but the only viable answer to the ultimate question. God is truly there - real and personal.
But how can anyone know Him? Because the God who is there has revealed Himself ...

PLEASE BE WARNED: Reading this book could change your life.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Line Of Despair 28 July 1999
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
A great compendium of 20th century thought as viewed through orthodox Christian eyes. Schaeffer traces what he calls the Line Of Despair which begins with Philosophy and extends through Art, General Culture, Music and eventually Theology. He shows how the "Line Of Despair" is the direct result of dethroning God and demonstrates the consequeces of the proclaimation, "God is Dead." As a Christian, this book really challenged me to treat the unbeliever with great love and sincerity and to present the Gospel in a relatable, non-Christian cliched manner.

5.0 out of 5 stars Life Changing 29 Nov 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
The greatest reward I experienced reading this book was learning to have compassion for those who are living under the 'Line of Despair', people who have no unity of knowledge between the spiritual and the physical. Mr. Schaeffer shows, very cogently, how those living without Jesus are either unable to live in harmony with their philosophy or have to jettison reason in order to have any meaning in their lives.
