Scripture is the voice and revelation of the eternal Christ 169 The exclusively inductive process is not truly historical 170 Both Paul and Peter gained their theology by deduction 171 Since experience of sin and of Christ is knowledge, it is material for science 173 The eternal Christ guarantees to us the _unity_ of Scripture 174 Also the _sufficiency_ of Scripture 175 Also the _authority_ of Scripture 176 The "historical method," as ordinarily employed, proceeds and ends without Christ 177 It therefore treats Scripture as a man-made book, and denies its unity, sufficiency, and authority 177 It sees in the Bible not an organism, pulsating with divine life, but only a congeries of earth-born fragments 177 XVI. SCRIPTURE AND MISSIONS 179-198 The "historical method" finds in Psalm 110 only human authorship 181 And contradicts Christ himself by denying the reference in the psalm to him 182 A document can have more than one author, shown in art as well as literature 183 Predictions of Christ in the Old Testament convinced unbelieving Jews 184 The "historical method" finds no prediction of Christ in Isaiah, and so contradicts John 184 Effect of this method upon the interpretation of the New Testament 185 It gives us no assurance of Christ's deity, and ignores Old Testament proofs that he is Prophet, Priest, and King 185 Value of the "historical method" when not exclusively inductive 186 Effect of this method, as often employed, upon systematic theology 187 If Scripture has no unity, no systematic theology is possible 187 Unitarian acknowledgment that its schools have no theology at all 189 Effect of this method upon our theological seminaries to send out disseminators of doubts 189
