Evolution of Christianity: Or Origin, Nature, and Development of the Religion of the Bible (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Evolution of Christianity: Or Origin, Nature, and Development of the Religion of the Bible

Believers in Christianity usually appeal to the Bible as the source of authority for their religion. Such appeal is all that is essential wherever the di vine Authorship of the Bible is recognized. In the present work, however, I have dealt with the subject of revealed religion from the standpoint of man's moral and mental necessities, showing his need of divine illumination, ' and arriving at the conclu sion that christianity is the only religion adapted to his requirements and must therefore be the true religion and the only successful religion for the moral elevation and redemption of man kind. Contrasted with all other forms of religion, Christianity, because of its beautiful nature and marvelous. Success, is in a class by itself, thus clearly demonstrating the fact that it proceeded from a source higher than human.
