The Case for Christianity

by C.S. Lewis

EN
About the book

C.S. Lewis builds a logical defense for faith by examining the universal concept of human morality. He argues that the shared recognition of a moral law, which individuals frequently violate despite acknowledging its authority, points toward a supernatural origin rather than mere biological instinct or social convention. From this foundation, Lewis addresses the internal consistency of the Christian worldview in contrast to atheism and dualism. He specifically analyzes the doctrine of the Incarnation and the mechanics of the atonement to explain how the life and death of Jesus function as a practical solution to human moral failure.

This book serves skeptics who prefer analytical reasoning over emotional appeals and believers who want to understand the intellectual basis of their convictions. Readers find a systematic framework for discussing objective right and wrong without relying on specialized theological jargon. By following the step-by-step progression of the text, a reader gains a clear vocabulary for explaining the existence of a transcendent lawgiver and the historical claims regarding the person of Christ.
