Learning to View Christianity As True Myth and How It Should Influence Both Our Thinking and Our Actions
2025
Overview
Often, Christianity and the Scriptures are viewed through either a purely academic lens or an emotionally based lens. While both methods have value and use, they also have major flaws that can hinder our growth and understanding. This thesis presents a more effective approach to understanding the Scriptures and our Christian faith. By combining both the heart and the mind, we have a method that can see the truth and logic of Christianity without missing the wonder and amazement of Christianity. This method was called True Myth by C.S. Lewis, for it acknowledges the total truth of everything in Christianity and the Scriptures from Genesis one through to the last chapter of Revelation, while at the same time embracing the mythical nature of our faith. It can accept what seems impossible by human standards, as wondrous, fantastical, and completely true, while also seeing the historical and scientific truth of Christianity. Thus, providing a faith that is grounded in logic and rationality while still accepting the amazing and fantastic nature of the triune God. This thesis will also look at myths and legends, both ancient and modern, and show how we can see Christ through them. It will enable us to truly see that God reveals Himself to all people and that truth always points to Him, no matter where it is found.
