Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Bible True; Or, the Cosmogony of Moses Compared With the Facts of Science: Containing the Origin and Correlative Position of the Different Races of Men, and a Description of Our Earth as It Was, as It Is and as It Must Be To no one is the arduous difficulty of this self-imposed task so apparent as to the author. There is a large class of Christians who consider it unnecessary to adduce evidence to substantiate the claims of the Bible, arguing that the proof is prima facie and self-evident, and therefore to all who read the Holy Word the conviction of its divine authenticity will certainly come with overwhelming power. Experience proves this to be a mistake. Others demand for the inquirer a rationalistic answer to all questions, arguing that the mind must have everything fully and clearly demonstrated before it can be convinced. This is also an error. Two and two added together make four must be accepted by the reason. "God is love" is accepted by the heart. There are truths in the Divine code not demonstrable. Where they occur, the mind and heart both enter into the investigation. There are truths everywhere we cannot demonstrate, yet they are none the less true. Yet the rationalistic tendency of the age requires from the Christian deeper investigation and more catholicity of spirit. Infidelity, like a simoon, is sweeping the field of religious investigation, and he who would escape its withering influence, must - as the individual in the caravan on the desert - independently of all others, labor for his safety. The seeming contradictions and inconsistencies in the Bible, so harped upon by those who disbelieve, are apparent to every one who carefully reads the Scriptures.
