Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Virgin Birth of Jesus: A Critical Examination of the Gospel-Narratives Narratives of the Nativity, and Other, New Testament and Early Christian, Evidence, and the Alleged of Heathen Fluence of Heathen Ideas This is a very clear and scholarly book which will, I think, carry conviction to the unprejudiced mind. The question of the Virgin Birth of Our Lord is a vital one in many ways. 1. In the first place, for the Church of England to lay it aside would make impossible any reunion with the Roman or Greek branches of the Church, to both of which it is a fundamental doctrine, and rightly so, for as the writer of this book shews, it has been embedded in the belief of Christendom from the beginning, and, if anything is ´Catholic," it is the doctrine of the Virgin Birth. 2. But, if it is untrue, it must be given up, what ever the consequences. We must follow Truth where-ever it leads, and it is here the writer of this book, by his clear argument, will help the honest seeker after Truth. He proves to demonstration that the story arose in the Judaeo-Christian atmosphere, an atmosphere entirely inconsistent with the suggestion that the story was a repetition of a heathen myth; he once again deals with the argument brought against the story from the "silence" of St. Mark, St. John, and St. Paul; he shews how mutually destructive are the theories of those who try to explain how the story arose from mythical or legendary antecedents, and, in a concluding section, draws out the doctrinal significance of the great belief.
