H. Ward is a philosophical treatise written in the late 19th century. The work addresses the perceived conflicts between science and religion, particularly from a Mormon perspective, arguing for the harmony of gospel teachings with scientific principles and historical facts. The text aims to strengthen the faith of its readers by dismantling infidel arguments and showcasing the credibility of the gospel. The opening of "Gospel Philosophy" presents the author's intent to refute what he perceives as the absurdities of infidelity and societal skepticism towards religious beliefs, particularly amongst the youth. Ward outlines his concerns about the challenges faced by young men who, through education and exposure to infidel ideology, may lose their faith in God. He posits that a true understanding of the gospel offers a comprehensive truth that aligns with intuition and intellectual inquiry, suggesting that the teachings of the gospel can withstand rigorous scrutiny and ultimately provide answers that science may not resolve.
