Excerpt from Bible Inspiration; Orthodox Point of View: Four Lectures Delivered in Tremont Temple, Boston, Under the Auspices of the Evangelical Alliance Here is conclusive evidence that the Bible is a man-made book; a proposition that no one doubts. There is evidence equally conclusive that the Bible is a God-made book; a proposition maintained by those who hold the orthodox creed. If these two propositions are granted. It follows that the Bible is both man-made and God-made. Under the guidance of this concluding statement, there are several topics relating to the Bible that will be relieved of a measure of difficulty and embarrassment - such as the Origin and History of the Bible, its Authenticity, its Credibility, its Genuineness and Inspiration. A discussion of either of these topics, if at all thorough, brings one face to face with What appears to be natural and supernatural agencies, working together, the possibility of which no theist will question, and is clearly set forth in the words of the Apostle: Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God that worketh in you. It is as if God had said to Moses, to Ezra, to the Apostle John and the others: Write and compile a book, and While doing it I will work with you and in you.
