Excerpt from Communion Wine and Bible Temperance: Being a Review of Dr. Thos, Laurie's Article in the Bibliotheca Sacra, of January, 1869 That difficulties should attach to the Bible view of temperance is not strange. Difficulties attach to the Bible view of almost every important subject, so that biblical scholars and eminent divines are divided in opinion. Hence, the church visible is divided into denominations, based on different interpretations of the Scriptures. Hence, too, slavery, polygamy, and other evils, have been defended from the Bible by distinguished theologians. Is it strange, then, that biblical scholars and divines differ, to some extent, in their interpretation of the Scriptures on the Wine Question? The sequel will show, however, that they are more harmonious on this subject than they are upon many theological tenets. Nor is Dr. Laurie's view unusual. He represents a class of Christian temperance men, whose convictions and motives challenge respect. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
