Evidence Of The Truth Of The Christian Religion Derived From The Literal Fulfiment Of Prophecy PDF Download

Excerpt from Evidence of the Truth of the Christian Religion: Derived From the Literal Fulfilment of Prophecy The following pages are presented to the public, in the hope that they may not be altogether unproductive of good. The idea of the propriety of such a publication was first suggested to the writer in consequence of a conversation with a person who disbelieved the truth of Christianity, but whose mind seemed to be considerably affected, even by a slight allus on to the argument from Prophecy. Having endeavored in vain to obtain, for his perusal, any concise treatise on the Prophecies, considered exclusively as a matter of evidence - and having failed in soliciting others to undertake the work, who were far better qualified for the execution of it - the writer was induced to make the attempt, and to endeavour to bring the object into view. In the following Essay the argument is brought within narrow limits. Those prophecies are not included which were fulfilled previously to the era of the last of the prophets, or of which the meaning is obscure, or the application doubtful. And the only question to be resolved is - Whether there be any clear predictions, literally accomplished, which, from their nature and their number, demonstrate that the Scriptures are the dictates of inspiration, or that the Spirit of Prophecy is the testimony of Jesus.
