Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of this book, Thomas Chalmers, (1780 -1847) was a Scottish minister, professor of theology, and a leader of both the Church of Scotland and of the Free Church of Scotland. He has been called "Scotland's greatest nineteenth-century churchman."Rev. Chalmers presents a history of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and delegated Messenger of Heaven -his life, his doctrines, and his miracles. In his development of the evidences of Christianity, he lays the main stress of his appeal upon the external, or the historical evidences. He considers the Scripture-record first of all merely as supported by the ordinary tests of historical truth. The work is divided into ten chapters: "On the Principles of Historical Evidence and their Application to the Question of the Truth of Christianity.-On the Authenticity of the different Books of the New Testament.-On the Internal Marks of Truth and Honesty to be found in the New Testament.-On the Testimony of the original Witnesses to the Truth of the Gospel Narrative.-On the Testimony of subsequent Witnesses.-Remarks on the Argument from Prophecy-Remarks on the Scepticism of Geologists. ─ On the internal Evidence, and the Objections of Deistical Infidels. ─ On the Way of proposing the Argument to Atheistical Infidels. ─ On the supreme Authority of Revelation."

Book excerpt: A startling exploration of the history of the most controversial book of the Bible, by the bestselling author of Beyond Belief. Through the bestselling books of Elaine Pagels, thousands of readers have come to know and treasure the suppressed biblical texts known as the Gnostic Gospels. As one of the world's foremost religion scholars, she has been a pioneer in interpreting these books and illuminating their place in the early history of Christianity. Her new book, however, tackles a text that is firmly, dramatically within the New Testament canon: The Book of Revelation, the surreal apocalyptic vision of the end of the world . . . or is it? In this startling and timely book, Pagels returns The Book of Revelation to its historical origin, written as its author John of Patmos took aim at the Roman Empire after what is now known as "the Jewish War," in 66 CE. Militant Jews in Jerusalem, fired with religious fervor, waged an all-out war against Rome's occupation of Judea and their defeat resulted in the desecration of Jerusalem and its Great Temple. Pagels persuasively interprets Revelation as a scathing attack on the decadence of Rome. Soon after, however, a new sect known as "Christians" seized on John's text as a weapon against heresy and infidels of all kinds-Jews, even Christians who dissented from their increasingly rigid doctrines and hierarchies. In a time when global religious violence surges, Revelations explores how often those in power throughout history have sought to force "God's enemies" to submit or be killed. It is sure to appeal to Pagels's committed readers and bring her a whole new audience who want to understand the roots of dissent, violence, and division in the world's religions, and to appreciate the lasting appeal of this extraordinary text.
