What is this? It was stated by the apostle Paul when writing to one of his dis­ ciples that “ from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus,” Then he proceeds in explanation: “ Ev’ery scripture inspired of God is profitable for teaching, for re­ proof, for correction, for instruc­ tion in righteousness: That the man of God may be complete, thoroughly furnished unto every good work.” In judging the scriptures the above object for which they are designed to serve, must be taken in view and not some other one. They were not intended to be either scientific or his­ torical text books. Their sphere is that of religious faith, to which appeal is made. They were writ­ ten primarily to believers, not to heathen, although their study may convert the unbelieveing into believers. So it is that they can only be rightly judged by believers who put them to this test, whether or not they make them “ wise unto salvation.” The scriptures recognize this point in more than one place. “The natural (or unconverted) man receiveth not the things of the spirit for they are foolish­ ness unto him; Neither can he know them for they are spiritu­ ally discerned.” This is per­ fectly reasonable for spiritual truth can only be discerned by the spiritually enlightened, as music can only be rightly appreciated by those who have a musical ear. The same is true of other arts and also of the sciences. In wireless telegraphy the receiver has to be tuned to the transmit­ ter to get the message, so the human mind has to be spiritu­ ally keyed to understand and re­ ceive a spiritual message. Those who are thus in tune and apprehend what the script­ ures impart concerning t h e i r salvation, are not disturbed by so called scientific or histori­ cal inaccuracies in them. What scientific book or history no mat­ ter of what high authority, has not been disputed in certain par­ ticulars? And seeing that the scriptures spread over centuries, none of the original manuscripts remaining, and the oldest extant are copies of other copies, and have been edited and re-edited, it would be inconceivable if no mistakes should occur in details, for it has never been claimed that the translators or copvists were inspired. But the believer '•olds (hat in the matters of sal­ vation and righteousness, and the great doctrines therein in­ volved. the scriptures are thor­ oughly reliable and what they teach concerning these is the truth. As to other questions such as the creation accounts, the credibility of the miracles which the scriptures record, or the lon­ gevity of the patriarchs, he is content to wait, confident that when these questions are finally cleared up. the scriptures will be vindicated, for most of the criti­ cism directed against them is due to the critic reading in w hat the scriptures do not contain or assert.
