From Our Exchanges

[J. Agar Beet in The Hibbert Journal]

In times of theological transition it is all-important that the leaders of thought state plainly and without reserve, to all sincere inquirers, what opinions once prevalent have been abandoned and for what reasons, and what other opinions have taken their place. Those who enjoy the advantages of sacred scholarship are bound, by their loyalty to him who said, "I am ... the truth," and who came to "bear witness unto the truth," to give to men and women in the weary conflict of life, as fully as they can, the best results of their research. If these were done, it would appear that modern scholarship has not robbed the church of anything worth having, and has saved it from many difficulties which in days gone by have pressed very heavily on some very godly and thoughtful people. This broader and deeper knowledge of the real significance and worth of the Christian Scriptures is a precious gift of God to the age in which we live. We must prove ourselves to be not unworthy of it.
