Book Description
Excerpt from Introductory Essays to Select Christian Authors To estimate them intellectually, account should be taken, both of their great discernment into the meaning of Scripture, and their deep insight into the mysteries of the heart. It was the conjunction of these two which so peculiarly qualified them to give a word in season - to point out the marvel lous correspondence which obtains, between the sayings of the Bible and the countless varieties of life and character in the world; or between the characters graven by the finger of the Almighty on the tablet of an outward revelation, and the characters graven by the same finger on the inward tablet of our own felt and familiar nature. In the language of the schools, they were skilful to adapt the objective to the subjective; or, in the more simple and emphatic language of inspiration, to manifest the truth of God to the consciences of men.

Book Description
Excerpt from Essays in Christian Thinking Now whatever we may think of God', we do not think of Him as one of a species but as a Being essentially unique, and we may therefore conclude that unless there is possible for us in life an experience of Him apart from all naming and recognition of Him, then we can never give His name any meaning at all, and' no'knowled'ge or experience of Him will be possible to us. His name will be to us as the names of colours or notes to those who have never seen or heard. The first task of the religious thinker is, there fore, to see whether there are any such ex periences in life, and, if so, what they, are and what they mean. And we may assume that if anywhere in life we have experience of God and are at all capable of recognizing His presence, the experiences in which we do so will be our highest, so that our search sends us to examine the creation and enjoyment of the beautiful, loyalty to truth and right, love and service.
