The Reformed Quarterly Review, 1884, Vol. 31 (Classic Reprint) by Thomas G. Apple PDF Summary

Book Description: Excerpt from The Reformed Quarterly Review, 1884, Vol. 31 The criticism and higher criticism of our day with all their knowledge and philological wisdom fail to bring to us the bless ing of certitude. The cause of. The failure is obvious. The Bible is put in the category of classical authors, and it is studied just as in our colleges the students learn Latin and Greek, as a dead language. They may graduate with the highest honor and they may appear very learned among as common folk, but place them in the society of those whose native and diving language is the Latin or Greek, and they at once become owl-like. The Christology of our church whose language has become as familiar to some of us as household words, is a nearer approach to the true idea. According to its teaching the Bible, the ia spired word of God, takes its character from the personal word. Christ is in fact the inspiration of the Bible. Just as in the birth of our Saviour into the world the Son of God became the Son of man and yet continues to be very God in personal union with humanity so by the inspiration of the sacred Scrip tures has the absolute word, the Logos, become the word of man, and yet continues to be the word that was with God and is God. He is in the entire fulness of the revelation, the Alpha and Omega of the Bible, and every word in it is His word. Under this objective view it is certainly perfect, full and complete. In this sense also it is the completion of the other wondrous form of the divine self-manifestation in the great book of nature. Here Christ is also the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. Viewed as a temple He is its foundation, its chief cor ner-stone, and the entire fulness of its inner glory. But the natural is complete in the supernatural, and as the spoken word of God it is also complete in Him. Hence the natural revelation and supernatural are but a twofoldness. The two great words of Jehovah, the one spoken when the worlds were rolled into being, and the other by the ancient prophets, and in these last days by the only begotten Son of God, are one and the same. Rightly understood, therefore, their teachings cannot be contradictory. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
