Excerpt from Scripture and Science Not at Variance: With Remarks on the Historical Character, Plenary Inspiration, and Surpassing Importance, of the Earlier Chapters of Genesis
The fact is, that sceptics and semi-sceptics are, unwittingly or not, undermining the faith of many in Scripture by subtle arguments drawn from the apparent contradictions between Scripture and Science. Against this it is necessary to provide an antidote: and the better fortified our youth are in their earlier days, the better prepared will they be to contend for the truth in after-life. It is not the Christian, but the worldly philosopher, who has raised these questions. But, having raised them, he forces the advocates of Scrip tural truth to enter upon the contest, and to meet him On his own ground, that they may put a weapon of defence in the hands of those Whose faith is in danger of being assailed.
I write for the protection and consolation of the faithful, under the attacks which Science, falsely - so called, has brought against the Sacred Volume which is dear to them, and in which all their hopes of happi ness are centred. There are excellent works which have the same end in View; but they take a different course. I will explain what I mean by an example.

Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book utilizes historical examples to demonstrate that scientific discovery often aligns with, rather than contradicts, the contents of holy scripture. The author stresses that scripture should be interpreted sensibly, with the recognition that it uses familiar language to describe natural phenomena, rather than technical language. The book highlights instances where false interpretations of scripture led to unnecessary conflict with science, and how a deeper understanding of both scripture and science has resolved these conflicts. By using examples from the history of astronomy, cosmology, and other scientific fields, the author shows that scripture, when correctly interpreted, is in harmony with the discoveries of science, and that both can be used to explore the wonders of the natural world.
