Excerpt from Scripture and Science Not at Variance: With Remarks on the Historical Character, Plenary Inspiration, and Surpassing Importance of the Earlier Chapters of Genesis
The assertion, not unfrequently made, that the dis coveries of Science are opposed to the declarations of Holy Scripture, is as mischievous as it is false, because it tends both to call in question the Inspiration of the Sacred Volume and to throw discredit upon scien tific pursuits.

Excerpt from Scripture and Science Not at Variance: With Remarks on the Historical Character, Plenary Inspiration, and Surpassing Importance of the Earlier Chapters of Genesis
In the First Chapter I bring the experience of the past to bear upon the subject, by showing how many examples history supplies in which from time to time Scripture and' Science have appeared to be in irrecon cilable conflict, in every one of which further light has cleared lip all difficulty. From this I argue, that it is in the highest degree unpfiz'losopfiical, whenever new difficulties arise in these days of discovery, to allow ourselves to doubt but that these also Will be cleared up as light and knowledge advance. The ex perience of the past should encourage us fearlessly to carry our investigations into the phenomena of nature, fully persuaded that no real discrepancy can ever be in the end established. The above may be regarded as a meyan'ce argument.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book argues that Scripture and Science do not conflict but rather reinforce one another. The author presents historical examples of where scientific discoveries have corrected misinterpretations of Scripture, ultimately strengthening its credibility. The book demonstrates that Scripture is not intended to teach natural science and that it uses language according to appearances, as humans would speak to one another in everyday life. Key topics addressed include the extent of the six-day creation, the existence of antipodes, the motion of the earth, the antiquity of the earth, and the existence of creatures before the six-day creation. By examining Scripture's character and contents, the author argues that its teachings are worthy of the God of truth and therefore must be in harmony with the works of His divine hand. Ultimately, this book provides a compelling and reassuring perspective on the relationship between Scripture and Science, encouraging readers to fearlessly pursue scientific inquiry with the confidence that it will ultimately lead to a deeper understanding of the divine.
