Excerpt from The Witness of the Heart to Christ
These Lectures are only indirectly apologetic: they necessarily take much for granted: they have one simple aim: they are intended to illustrate the adaptation of the Gospel to the needs of man. Man is the problem: Christianity is the solution. Tested in every age and by every race, the Gospel has proved itself fitted to man, and possessed of power to win the wandering affections, to satisfy the uneasy conscience, to establish the wavering will, to form the character, to kindle new hope, and to inspire with nobler aims the chance-led or passion-driven life. Of all those who have appealed to man, Christ alone has uttered the magic words before which the sin-closed door of the human heart has rolled open. If this be true, the truth supplies an argument.
