Inspiration and Inerrancy Inaugural Address (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Inspiration and Inerrancy: Inaugural Address There is no subject on which the religious public will at the present time more eagerly welcome a competent statement than, What to think about the Bible? In all the churches it is a question, if not the question, of the hour. It is not a question merely, or even chiefly, as between believers and infidels, but among believers themselves; between men holding substantially the same creed regarding matters pertaining to religion; a question internal to faith, and dividing the household of faith. It is a question on which much discussion will be needed to bring about a good understanding between those who at present are divided in opinion and tempted to think evil of each other. And inasmuch as those who now stand opposed are really at one in their fundamental beliefs and aims, it is evidently very desirable that the debate should be carried on in a spirit of mutual respect and trust, and with the gravity and reverence that befit the theme.
