"This volume consists of Lectures given to the Students of the Pastors' College [1923], who expressed a strong desire for their publication, in the belief that they would meet a distinct want of the present day...The Lectures uphold the old belief in the Bible as the Divine (Inspired & preserved) Word, and advocate the doctrine of its Plenary and Verbal Inspiration, special attention being given to the testimony of Christ and His Apostles. In treating of this subject, some notice has been taken of the assumptions of the Higher Critics in regard to the Old Testament. It did not lie within the plan of the Lectures to treat of the Higher Criticism as a whole, but merely to view it in the light of the teaching of our Lord and His Apostles; and subsequently when dealing with objections to note some of the difficulties raised by the new theories. Most of the Lectures are given as they were delivered, but as, in the course of delivery, several points were treated orally, I have endeavored, in some of the Lectures, to incorporate the spoken matter, and so make a nearer approach to completeness of treatment, while a few additional examples of discrepancies have been given.

After all, I am conscious that the work is far from being complete but is sent forth in the hope and with the prayer that the Lord of the Word may use it for His own glory, in leading some to a deeper appreciation of the Word of the Lord-the Grand Old Book."
