Christos - William Kingsland - Bog

Christos: The Religion of the Future is a book written by William Kingsland that explores the concept of Christos, a universal spiritual principle that is said to exist beyond the boundaries of any one religion. The book delves into the history and evolution of religious thought, examining the similarities and differences between different faiths and traditions. Kingsland argues that Christos represents a unifying force that can bring together people of all faiths and backgrounds, and that it has the potential to become the religion of the future. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, and is intended for anyone interested in exploring the intersection of spirituality, philosophy, and religion. It is a thought-provoking and insightful work that challenges readers to think deeply about their own beliefs and the nature of the divine.What I have here endeavored to do, merely in outline, is to show that certain modern beliefs, dogmas, and creeds, which have been carried over and have survived from a far less enlightened age or period, can no longer be valid in the light of our modern knowledge. But, further than that, I shall hope to indicate that even in the remotest past there was already a deeper knowledge, a real Gnosis which we are in fact only now beginning to recover. It is that ancient Gnosis which must be the Religion of the Future; for, as I shall hope to show to some extent, all our scientific discoveries and our modern philosophical thinking tends to confirmation and restatement of it.""
