trinities.org/blog/podcast-310-channings-objections-to-unitarian-christianity-considered In this episode you’ll hear a complete, slightly modernized presentation of William Ellery Channing’s 1819 article “Objections to Unitarian Christianity Considered.” In this piece he engages with “popular” objections, the kind current not so much with scholars as with ordinary people.
The objections he answers are that unitarian Christianity:
Denies “the Divinity of Christ.”
Takes away the only hope of sinners, an infinite atonement.
Teaches salvation by works, not by grace.
Preaches “morality.”
Produces less zeal, seriousness, and piety than trinitarian forms of Christianity.
Is “a half-way house to unbelief,” i.e. to the complete rejection of divine revelation.
Gives a person no consolation in the face of sickness and death.
Does Channing effectively answer these? What are the common pew-level objections to today’s unitarian Christianity?
