Excerpt from The Divine Origin and Authority of the Bible Believing that a small work, setting forth in simple language some of the evidences of the divine origin and authority of the Bible would be acceptable to the masses of the people and would be read with interest and profit by them, I have written the present work. It is not a com pilation, but almost an exclusively original com position, presenting new arguments and eviden ces not'to be found elsewhere. Vast efforts are being made by professed scientists and infidels to undermine the Bible, and thus overthrow the Christian faith. But all their efforts will prove futile and vain. They will only pull down de struction upon themselves, while the Book will stand, as it has always stood, all the wrath of men and the malice of devils. You must not suppose that this is all that can be said in de fense of the Bible. It is a very meager sketch. It is not the thousandth part. Volumes upon V01 umes might be written without exhausting it. Evidences of Christianity have been written oftentimes by profoundly able and scholarly men, but th'e evidences (that is all the evi deuces) have never. Been written, and never can be written, for they sweep the universe. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
