Synopsis

Excerpt from What the Bible Teaches: A Thorough and Comprehensive Study of What the Bible Has to Say Concerning the Great Doctrines of Which It Treats

Some of the propositions in this book may appear new and even startling to many, but it is believed that they fairly and exactly state the contents Of the passages upon which they are based.

It is hoped that the book will prove Of interest and help, both to those who believe in the Divine origin Of the Bible and to those who do not. One of the most satisfactory ways of determining whether the Bible is of Divine origin or not, is by finding out precisely what it teaches and whether there is one deep philosophy running through the book composed by such a multiplicity and variety Of human authors. The writer must confess that his own conviction that there was one Author back Of the many writers, and that that one Author was God, has ever deepened as he studied.
