The Person of Christ: The Miracle of History

The question of Christ is the question of Christianity which is the manifestation of his life in the world; it is the question of the Church which rests upon him as the immovable rock; it is the question of history which revolves around him as the central sun of the moral universe; it is the question of every man who instinctively yearns after him as the object of his noblest and purest aspirations; it is a question of personal salvation which can only be obtained in the blessed name of Jesus. The whole fabric of Christianity stands or falls with its divine-human Founder; and if it can never perish it is because Christ lives the same yesterday to-day and for ever.The object of this book is simply to show in a popular style that the Person of Christ is the great central miracle of history and the strongest evidence of Christianity. The very perfection of his humanity is a proof of his Divinity. The indwelling of God in him is the only satisfactory solution of the problem of his amazing character.
