Excerpt from Holy Scripture and Modern NegationsTestament. There the circle completes itself with the new heaven and the new earth wherein dwelleth right eousness. Now, here is a structure, here is the fact, here is a structure, a connected story, a unity of pur pose extending through this Book and binding all its parts together. Is that structure an illusion? Do we only - have men only - dreamed that is there? Do our eyes deceive us when we think we see it? Or has somebody of a later date invented it and put it all in - wrought it all in - these earlier records, legends and stories, or whatever you like to call it - skilfully woven it into the story until it presents there the ap pearance of naturalness and truth? I would like, friends, to find the mind capable of inventing it, and then the mind capable of putting it in and working it into a history once they got the idea itself. But if not invented, it belongs to the reality and the sub stance of the history, it belongs to the facts, and therefore to the Book that records the facts. And there is internal attestation in that structure of the Bible to the genuineness of its contents that pro tests against the efforts that are so often made to reduce it to fragments and shiver up that unity and turn it upside down. Walk about this Zion, tell the towers thereof, mark ye well its bulwarks, you will find there is something there which the art of man will not avail to overthrow.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
