Excerpt from The Bible Under Trial: In View of Present-Day Assaults on Holy Scripture
The Papers composing this volume were prepared in response to urgent request as a popular apologetic series in defence of the Bible from the attacks made on it from different quarters. They are now published in the hope that they may do something to steady the minds of those who are in perplexity owing to the multitude and confusion of the opinions that prevail in these times regarding the Sacred Book. The Papers are written from the standpoint of faith in the Bible as the inspired and authoritative record for us of God"s revealed will. The author has no sympathy with the view which depreciates the authority of Scripture in order to exalt over against it the authority of Christ. He does not acknowledge that there is any collision between the two things, or that they can be really severed, the one from the other. He finds the Word of God and of Christ in the Scriptures, and knows no other source of acquaintance with it. As designed for the general Christian reader, the Papers make no pretence to exhaustive treatment. They confine themselves to tracing broad outlines of defence and vindication.
