The Bible Doctrine of Inspiration: Explained and Vindicated

By Basil Sr. Manly

""The Bible Doctrine of Inspiration: Explained and Vindicated"" is a book written by Basil Manly and published in 1888. The book is a detailed examination of the Christian doctrine of biblical inspiration, which asserts that the Bible is the inspired word of God. Manly begins by defining what is meant by ""inspiration"" and then explores the different theories of inspiration that have been proposed throughout history. He argues that the Bible's inspiration is a unique and supernatural phenomenon, and that it is not simply the result of human genius or intuition.Manly also addresses criticisms of the doctrine of inspiration, including the charge that it is incompatible with modern science and historical criticism. He argues that these criticisms are unfounded and that the Bible's inspiration is consistent with both reason and evidence.Throughout the book, Manly draws on a wide range of sources, including the Bible itself, historical and theological texts, and contemporary scholarship. He also provides numerous examples of how the doctrine of inspiration has been understood and applied throughout Christian history.Overall, ""The Bible Doctrine of Inspiration: Explained and Vindicated"" is a comprehensive and well-researched exploration of one of the central tenets of Christian faith. It will be of interest to scholars and lay readers alike who are interested in understanding the nature and significance of biblical inspiration.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
