Excerpt from An Answer to the Essays and Reviews
What, then, is the argument assigned for not interpreting Scripture literally? It is this - that there are several facts and doctrines therein stated which, when so interpreted, are Stumbling-blocks to a large proportion of educated men, i.e., facts which, with our previous belief and assumptions, appear to us to be, each of them, a contradiction in terms, and doctrines which are contrary to what our reason and experience would have led us to anticipate.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book tackles a profound debate surrounding the interpretation of religious scriptures, specifically the Bible. The author delves into the arguments put forth by certain scholars who question the literal interpretation of supernatural events and doctrines, such as miracles. The author argues that these scholars make an assumption that God cannot perform miracles because such actions would violate the physical laws that govern nature. However, the author contends that this assumption is based on a misconception of causation and the nature of God as a conscious Agent in the universe. This book challenges the idea that miracles are impossible, offering a thought-provoking examination of faith, reason, and the role of the supernatural in religious belief.
