Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bible, Its Own Refutation While writing this book, I imagined some Christian at my side whom I addressed in the second person whenever it suited my convenience. For the purpose of avoiding tedious explanations or the use of words imlying condition, I have, in many instances, treated of facts as being established, intending to be understood as merely asserting that they were alleged by the writers, whose books were under review. For the same reason I have called certain books of the Bible after the names of their reputed authors, notwithstanding my previous denial of their genuineness. My anxiety, that the Chapter on the Prophecies should be understood, induces me to request the reader, on his first perusal, to examine those verses only, of the chapters which have been quoted entire, to which his attention is particularly invited. Had I quoted but these verses, I should have been accused of garbling. It is well known with what reluctance we lay down one book to take up another, to which reference is made. Not one in a hundred of our citizens has ever read those books that are called prophetical, with a view of understanding them. I am more than anxious that they should be read, and their true character understood. Influenced by these considerations, I have made copious extracts from some of them. Let me also request the reader to become familiar with the characters and histories of those individuals whose names are found in this chapter, for he never will be able to understand and appreciate the argument, unless the character and history of each be intimately associated with the name. I ask nothing of the reader which I have not given him the means of acquiring. The propriety of this request was evinced to me a few days since.

Download or read book The Bible in the Workshop written by Eisenstadt Eisenstadt and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bible in the Workshop: A Refutation of Bishop Colenso's Critical Examination of the Pentateuch and the Book of Joshua There is, however, no lack of avowal on the part of the Bishop of what he intends to do if he is able. There is no attempt to disguise the uncompromising hostility of his cri ticism upon the first six books of the Holy Scriptures. He does not leave the slightest doubt upon the mind of the reader that he intends to prove, if he can, the untruthfulness of the Pentateuch, or, as he himself terms it, the unhistorical character of those books. But why not speak out plainly? If they are unhistorical, they are but a collection of fables, pure and simple, and the sooner they become the companions of Jack, the Giant-killer, the better. There can be no positive teaching drawn from a book, in which it requires a close study to detect the hidden fable from the hidden truth; and the whole history is either one of gross imposture, unworthy the notice of men living in earnest, or it is part of the oracles of the living God.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ingersoll Answered From the Bible, and Ingersoll Against Himself: Being a Refutation of "Infidelity," in Defence of the Word of God The Bible is its best defender when permitted to speak. Many of its assailants have shown great ignorance of its contents. A candid and careful perusal, such as would be given to a legal document where a fortune is involved, would convert any man who ever wrote against it.

This book was released on 2018-11-08 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Refutation of the Doctrine of Total Hereditary Depravity What, but ignorance of human nature, has led to the admission, by many religionists, of the doctrine of total hereditary depravity? A doctrine, which, in order to its refutation, needs but one enlightened glance of the mind's eye, at the principles of which man is composed. This doctrine, although incompatible with every prin ciple of self-knowledge, has become extensively papa-c lat - is in fact a precious ingredient in many popular creeds - is the chief corner stone of Calvinistic and Ar minian sectarism.

Download or read book The Jefferson Bible written by Thomas Jefferson and published by Wyatt North Publishing, LLC. This book was released on 2014-01-05 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Jefferson Bible, or The Life and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth as it is formally titled, was a book constructed by Thomas Jefferson in the latter years of his life by cutting and pasting numerous sections from various Bibles as extractions of the doctrine of Jesus. Jefferson's composition excluded sections of the New Testament containing supernatural aspects as well as perceived misinterpretations he believed had been added by the Four Evangelists. In 1895, the Smithsonian Institution under the leadership of librarian Cyrus Adler purchased the original Jefferson Bible from Jefferson's great-granddaughter Carolina Randolph for $400. A conservation effort commencing in 2009, in partnership with the museum's Political History department, allowed for a public unveiling in an exhibit open from November 11, 2011, through May 28, 2012, at the National Museum of American History.

Download or read book A History of the Bible written by John Barton and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2020-08-04 with total page 642 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A literary history of our most influential book of all time, by an Oxford scholar and Anglican priest In our culture, the Bible is monolithic: It is a collection of books that has been unchanged and unchallenged since the earliest days of the Christian church. The idea of the Bible as "Holy Scripture," a non-negotiable authority straight from God, has prevailed in Western society for some time. And while it provides a firm foundation for centuries of Christian teaching, it denies the depth, variety, and richness of this fascinating text. In A History of the Bible, John Barton argues that the Bible is not a prescription to a complete, fixed religious system, but rather a product of a long and intriguing process, which has inspired Judaism and Christianity, but still does not describe the whole of either religion. Barton shows how the Bible is indeed an important source of religious insight for Jews and Christians alike, yet argues that it must be read in its historical context--from its beginnings in myth and folklore to its many interpretations throughout the centuries. It is a book full of narratives, laws, proverbs, prophecies, poems, and letters, each with their own character and origin stories. Barton explains how and by whom these disparate pieces were written, how they were canonized (and which ones weren't), and how they were assembled, disseminated, and interpreted around the world--and, importantly, to what effect. Ultimately, A History of the Bible argues that a thorough understanding of the history and context of its writing encourages religious communities to move away from the Bible's literal wording--which is impossible to determine--and focus instead on the broader meanings of scripture.
