The Bible Doctrine of Inspiration

For The Last Several Hundred Years There Has Been A Growing Tendency Against The Admission Of Anything Supernatural. Dr. Manly Maintains That The Bible Is Not Of Man As To Its Source; Nor Depending On Man As To Its Authority. It Is By And Through Man As Its Medium; Yet Not Simply As The Channel Along Which It Runs Like Water Through A Lifeless Pipe But Through And By Man As The Agent Voluntarily Active And Intelligent In Its Communication. This Book Delves Into Questions Of This Nature: “In What Sense Is The Bible The Word Of God? Is It Strictly Divinely Breathed Or Not?” He Also Ventures Into The Objections Of Science Vs. The Bible. Says Manly “Had The Scriptures Used The Language Of Modern Science Itself Subject To Perpetual Modifications And Even Revolutionary Transitions With Reference To The Common Physical Phenomena Incidentally Mentioned They Would Have Been Unintelligible To Those To Whom They Were At First Given And No More Instructive To Us Of Modern Times.”His Answers Are Presented In A Cogent But Scholarly Manner. He Concludes That Truth Has Nothing To Lose But Everything To Gain From Fair Investigation; And That To One Who Earnestly And Prayerfully Seeks God Will Give Guidance And Satisfaction. This Book Has Become Standard And A Classic On The Authority Of The Holy Bible.
