Synopsis

Excerpt from The Unaccountable Man

The question Of questions, therefore, is not What think ye Of Christianity? But What think ye Of Christ? There seems to be a disposition in some quarters to ignore the personal factor and retain the ethical system: but this is as impossible as it would be to keep the sunlight and reject the sun. For, in the last reduction, there is nothing in Christianity but Christ.

A calm discussion Of this question touching the personality Of Christ can lead to one conclusion only, as we shall presently see. The disciples, on the road to that conclusion, happened on many surprises and startling denouements. They had reason to suppose that they knew something Of Jesus, being on terms Of closest intimacy with him, yet now and then a truth fell from his lips, so new, SO bold and illumina ting, that they looked into each other's faces with questioning amaze. Or perhaps it was a miracle, - the cleansing Of a leper or the stilling Of a tempest, - which moved them to cry, What manner of man is this?
