Excerpt from The Miracles of Jesus IN every religion the supernatural affects man. The religious man seeks to grasp the supernatural. But the supernatural repels just as soon as it obtrudes itself in per ceptible events and in a measure unveils the secret. The religious man sees himself in the struggle of these two tendencies of his being; he reaches after the supernatural and would snatch it, so imperfect does he feel himself and his world to be without it; but when he sees it he is tossed to and fro by doubts whether it is, indeed, the super natural or merely a delusion.

Excerpt from Miracles and Science F. If you are in earnest, you must know and feel too, as I do, that the important point is whether' must and ought can go together here. If you, still claiming to be a Christian, hold that your faith may, as well as must, be tested by the methods in question, you hold that it will stand the test: if, on the other hand, you only mean that the process is inevitable, you mean that we have-no eventual prospect before us but Atheism.

Excerpt from The Question of Miracles Such, speaking historically, is the relation of the Christian faith to miracles. At the present day, however, the claim is made to hold a non-miracu lous Christianity -to profess Christianity and at the same time to dispense with all belief in the miraculous. This attitude may be said to be one of the leading characteristics of liberal Protestant ism. Among German Protestant theologians it is almost universal. Those who, like Zahn and See berg, still hold the historic reality of the New Testament miracles are few indeed - mrz' names in gurgz'te waste.

Excerpt from Miracles in the New Testament The main part of this book consists of a critical examina tion of the miracle-stories of the New Testament, leading to the hypothesis that the original events underlying those traditions need not be regarded as miraculous. This is prefaced by an attempt to define the belief in miracles, and followed by an estimate of some of the theological results of its rejection. It must not be thought that, because the constructive part of the book (pp. 211-218) is so short, it is un important. It was inevitable, from the nature of the case, that the detailed criticism of the miracle-stories should form the bulk of the argument. But criticism is throughout regarded as subordinate to construction. There would be little point in discussing the problem of miracles except as a step towards a formulation of Christian theology. The last few pages of the conclusion are meant to focus the whole argument upon what really matters - our belief about God and Christ. They should, perhaps, be read first, as well as last, if the book is to be fairly judged as a whole. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
