Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Plenary Inspiration of the Scriptures Asserted, and the Principles of Their Composition Investigated: With a View to the Refutation of All Objections to Their Divinity; In Six Lectures, (Very Greatly Enlarged, ) Delivered at Albion Hall, London Wall Let not, however, these remarks be misunderstood. Nothing is further from the intention of the writer, than to depreciate the merit, 'or undervalue the utility, of the vindications of Revelation here alluded to all that is meant to be insinuated is, that they require something in addition to render them fully efficient to their object. If, while the Deist is convinced by them that miracles were actually wrought at the commencement of Christianity, and that Revealed Religion had a divine origin, he 18 induced, in com sequence, to suspect that the circumstances in its documents which lie regards as revolting to reason only appear so because they are not understood: the conviction wrought in him may be lasting, and may finally be exalted into an enlightened faith. But to se cure this result, it surely is necessary to lead him, as well as to drive him - to resolve his doubts and remove his difficulties, as well as to assure him, that the religion is true in spite offham all. Is has long, then, been the conviction of the writer of these pages, that such a vlew of the Volume of Revelation might be pre sented as should be adequate to this object: but be little thought that ever he should venture to attempt it himself. The present work is entirely the product of circumstances, and its publication is what they who do not acknowledge at Providence in every thing, would call purely accidental.
