—Ti de kai aph' heautōn ou krinete to dikaion;
LUKE, XII. 57.
CONTENTS.
Chapter 01. The right use of Reason in Religion. 5
Chapter 02. It is impossible to banish all religion from the world; and if it were possible, it would be the greatest calamity which could befall the human race. 15
Chapter 03. If Christianity be rejected, there is no other religion which can be substituted it its place; at least no other which will at all answer the purpose for which Religion is desirable. 23
Chapter 04. Revelation necessary to teach us how to worship God acceptably—the nature and certainty of a future state—and especially, the method by which sinners may obtain salvation. 37
Chapter 05. There is nothing improbable or unreasonable in the idea of a Revelation from God; and consequently, nothing improbable or unreasonable in such a manifest divine interposition, as may be necessary to establish a revelation. 68
Chapter 06. Miracles are capable of proof from testimony. 74
Chapter 07. The Miracles of the Gospel are credible. 89
Chapter 08. The Bible contains predictions of events, which no human sagacity could have foreseen, and which have been exactly and remarkably accomplished. 130
Chapter 09. No other Religion possesses the same kind and degree of evidence, as Christianity; and no other miracles are as well attested, as those recorded in the Bible. 154
Chapter 10. The Bible contains Internal evidence that its origin is divine. 173
Chapter 11. The Scriptures of the Old and New Testament, were written by the inspiration of God; and this inspiration, however it may be distinguished, was plenary; that is, the writers were under an infallible guidance, both as it relates to the ideas and words: and yet, the acquired knowledge, habits, and peculiar dispositions of the writers, were not superseded. 216
