Excerpt from The Truth of Scripture: In Connection and Revelation, Inspiration and the Canon

HE present is an age of inquiry. In every department of science and art, of philosophy and theology, of criticism and interpretation, we are required to give a reason for the truths believed and the courses pursued. This within proper limits cannot reasonably be objected to; it is both sensible and scriptural. Sometimes, however, matters are carried to an extreme, and the demand becomes too exacting but even to the froward we may not show ourselves froward; while we are required to be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh us a reason Of the hope that is in us, with meekness and fear.
