Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Miraculous Birth of Jesus Christ It is easy for some to dismiss this question by the short method of authoritative dogmatism. Others have no patience with the details of critical inquiry. Multitudes of our people do not care to think at all. There are many, however, who in a matter of this profound and serious character wish for a broad and candid presentation. They do not doubt the sin cerity of the men who deny the miraculous conception, but would like to see a fair and comprehensive statement of both sides of the controversy. One may also venture to submit that, even if the historicity of the first chapters of Matthew and Luke. Be as a whole Open to suspicion, the miraculous con ception may still be shown to be credible. Our aim in this article is first to state the reasons usually alleged for doubting the historical trustworthiness of the narratives in Matthew and Luke, and to offset them by such replies and other considera tions as are entitled to equal attention. In this part of the discussion we study to abstain from anything which might be construed as partisan pleading, or as unwillingness to allow the full force of the opposite position. We shall then proceed to adduce the strong reasons outside the records of the mirac ulous birth which go to confirm the credibility of those nar ratives and to establish the faith and tradition of the Christian centuries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Virgin Birth of Our LordEsteem the honor of being asked to write a word of preface to Dr. Briggs's paper on the Virgin Birth. I owe this privilege sim ply to the fact that I begged earnestly for its re publication in order that a copy might be given to every student in the General Seminary. Amidst all the writing on this topic which has appeared of late no presentation seems to me clearer, saner or more cogent than the argument here put forth. The fame of Dr. Briggs as a fearless and open-minded scholar assures us that no objection on the score of Biblical Criticism has been overlooked. Meanwhile, there is a rever ence in his whole treatment of the subject, a rea sonable deference toward the consensus of the Christian consciousness, a sympathetic apprecia tion of time-honored theological definition, which give a grateful sense of fairness and spiritual in tegrity. I am sure that my own feeling of obli gation to the writer will be widely shared throughout the Church at large.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Virgin Birth of Christ written by J. Gresham Machen and published by . This book was released on 2011-10-01 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This volume sustains, and more than sustains, Dr. Machen's reputation as not only one of the world's foremost New Testament scholars but as one of the ablest defenders of historic Christianity. His former books, 'The Origin of Paul's Religion' (1921), 'Christianity and Liberalism' (1923) and 'What is Faith?' (1925), have so whetted the appetites of their thousands of readers that the announcement of a new book by Dr. Machen fills them with eager expectancy---whatever may be their theological position. It will be recalled that Mr. Walter Lippmann, whose theological position is about as far removed as possible from that of Dr. Machen's, in his widely read book, 'A Preface to Morals', not only speaks of Dr. Machen as 'both a scholar and a gentleman' but says of his book, 'Christianity and Liberalism': 'It is an admirable book. For its acumen, for its saliency, and for its wit, this cool and stringent defense of orthodox Protestantism is, I think, the best popular argument produced by either side in the current controversy. We shall do well to listen to Dr. Machen.' Dr. Machen's latest book, it is true, like 'The Origin of Paul's Religion', moves throughout in the field of exact scholarship. It would be difficult to point to a book anywhere that is more thorough-going in its recital and examination of all that bears upon the subject with which it deals. But while this is the case, Dr. Machen writes so simply and lucidly that men and women of intelligence everywhere, whatever their standing as technical scholars, will be able to read it with understanding and profit. Certainly no minister or Bible teacher of adults can afford to ignore this book. To the reviewer at least it is a source of much satisfaction to know that what is confessedly the most exhaustive and most scholarly book on the problem of the Virgin Birth of Christ ever published, at least in English, has been written by a man who after having acquainted himself with everything of importance that has been written on the subject since the first century, no matter in what language, holds to the historic belief of the Christian Church that its founder was born without human father, being conceived by the Holy Ghost and born of the Virgin Mary." -Samuel Craig

Download or read book The Virgin Birth of Jesus written by G. H. Box and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Virgin Birth of Jesus: A Critical Examination of the Gospel-Narratives Narratives of the Nativity, and Other, New Testament and Early Christian, Evidence, and the Alleged of Heathen Fluence of Heathen Ideas This is a very clear and scholarly book which will, I think, carry conviction to the unprejudiced mind. The question of the Virgin Birth of Our Lord is a vital one in many ways. 1. In the first place, for the Church of England to lay it aside would make impossible any reunion with the Roman or Greek branches of the Church, to both of which it is a fundamental doctrine, and rightly so, for as the writer of this book shews, it has been embedded in the belief of Christendom from the beginning, and, if anything is 'Catholic," it is the doctrine of the Virgin Birth. 2. But, if it is untrue, it must be given up, what ever the consequences. We must follow Truth where-ever it leads, and it is here the writer of this book, by his clear argument, will help the honest seeker after Truth. He proves to demonstration that the story arose in the Judaeo-Christian atmosphere, an atmosphere entirely inconsistent with the suggestion that the story was a repetition of a heathen myth; he once again deals with the argument brought against the story from the "silence" of St. Mark, St. John, and St. Paul; he shews how mutually destructive are the theories of those who try to explain how the story arose from mythical or legendary antecedents, and, in a concluding section, draws out the doctrinal significance of the great belief.
