Overview

The author of this book, Thomas Chalmers, (1780 -1847) was a Scottish minister, professor of theology, and a leader of both the Church of Scotland and of the Free Church of Scotland. He has been called Scotland's greatest nineteenth-century churchman. Rev. Chalmers presents a history of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and delegated Messenger of Heaven -his life, his doctrines, and his miracles. In his development of the evidences of Christianity, he lays the main stress of his appeal upon the external, or the historical evidences.

On the internal Evidence, and the Objections of Deistical Infidels. On the Way of proposing the Argument to Atheistical Infidels. On the supreme Authority of Revelation.
