Summary "History of Rationalism Embracing a Survey of the Present State of Protestant Theology" by John F. Hurst is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book explores the development and impact of Rationalism within Protestant circles, especially in the context of its historical evolution and its conflict with evangelical Christianity. It aims to provide insights into the nature and consequences of Rationalism while emphasizing the importance of addressing the doubts it raises. The opening of the work sets the stage by defining Rationalism and articulating its historical context, particularly its roots in Germany and its spread into other areas of Europe, including England and France. Hurst acknowledges the rise of Rationalism as both a product of theological inquiry and a significant challenge to traditional Protestant beliefs. Drawing from personal experiences and observations in Germany, he highlights the influence of Rationalism on the church's doctrines and pitiful state, outlining the necessity of understanding and addressing this movement to preserve the integrity of faith. Through an examination of the thoughts and works of various Rationalist thinkers, Hurst aims to provide a comprehensive view of this intricate theological conflict.
