The Christian Faith is, with the exception of Calvin's Institutes, the most important work covering the whole filed of doctrine to which Protestant theology can point. To say this is not necessarily to adopt either his fundamental principles or the detailed conclusions to which these principles have guided him. On all such matters a nearly unbroken controversy has long prevailed. But, whether for acceptance or rejection, it is necessary for serious students to know what Schleiermacher has to say. -ADAPTED FROM THE PREFACE Long available only in expensive hardcover editions, the Apocryphile Press is proud to make Schleiermacher's classic of theology once more within reach for students and others on a limited budget. This is the second edition of the complete work, originally published in two volumes, but here collected into one.

5.0 out of 5 stars An essential for understanding modern theology
Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2006
Verified Purchase
Friedrich Schleiermacher was the founder of Protestant liberalism. His description of the divine as the feeling of "absolute dependence" set the stage for all subsequent attempts to defend the Christian religion against post-Enlightment skepticism toward the truth of religious claims. College and seminary level students will profit from reading the primary source, as opposed to secondary treatments. I use portions of the text in an upper division course in modern theology for Bible and theology majors, knowing that the effort made now will benefit them greatly when they get to seminary.

This is a book that is touted as a crucial turning point in the acceptability in Christian faith and thinking in the light of the Enlightenment. However, I have not yet received it but am looking forward to reading it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Translation Available, But If You Can Afford it Get the One with the Gerrish Introduction
Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2019
Excellent translation that is notably better than the most recent one by Terrence Tice et al., (although the Tice is much more aesthetically pleasing with its two volumes and does include helpful footnotes). Otherwise, I'd recommend getting the copy of this translation that has the introduction by B.A. Gerrish. Gerrish's work on Schleiermacher is lucid and in plain English (as much as that is possible given the topic). Here is a link: https://www.amazon.com/Christian-Faith-Friedrich-Schleiermacher/dp/0567087093/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=the+christian+faith+gerrish&qid=1576886006&sr=8-3

5.0 out of 5 stars A Seminal Work in Modern Theology.
Reviewed in the United States on June 17, 2000
Its no coincidence that Schleiermacher is called the 'father of modern theology.' This classic in systematic theology is indispensible to any theology student tho wants to understand liberal theology. The Christian faith is distinctly Christological in nature. Schleiermacher, because of his Moravian upbringing, has great reverance for Christ (unlike some of the modern theologians who were to follow). Another distinguishing characteristic of the Christian Faith is Schleiermacher's idea of "religion as feeling." For Schleiermacher, feeling was what authenticated religion. Another distiguishing feature is Schleiermacher's opinion of other faiths and Christianity's relation to those faiths. He has quite a progressive notion of religious pluralism for a nineteenth century theologian. In short, no theology scholar should be without this monumental work. As an accomponiment, I suggest you purchase Schleiermacher's "On Religion: Speeches to its Cultured Despisers," which is another book that gave birth to liberal theology. Schleiermacher truly was the greatest theologian between Martin Luther and Karl Barth.
