Mere Christianity - Study & Discussion Questions - Book 1: Right and Wrong as a Clue to the Meaning of the Universe, Chapter 5 - We Have Cause to be Uneasy

Howdy Book Clubbers,

In Chapter 5, we are getting closer to calling the "Somebody" behind the Moral Law, God. He gives us three reasons why Christianity makes sense in the light of Moral Law (aka The Law of Human Nature).

For those of you who want a quick summary or a little more information on what we read in Book 1, check out these notes: http://www.opendiscipleship.org/mere-christianity-leaders-notes/

STUDY QUESTIONS

1.) Reason #1 is that humanity is on the wrong road. Do you agree/disagree? What evidence to do yo offer as support?

2.) What are the two bits of evidence we have about the "Somebody"? What conclusions can we draw from each piece of evidence? What does it mean that this "Somebody" behind the moral law is good, but also terrifying?

3.) Christianity makes no sense apart from a sense of the Moral Law and one’s personal inability to keep it. How much sense does Christianity make to you?
