The New Theology and the Old Religion: Being Eight Lectures, Together With Five Sermons (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The New Theology and the Old Religion: Being Eight Lectures, Together With Five Sermons

I am sure also that the self - disclosure of God which reached its culmination in Jesus Christ is final, and that by the very neces sity of the case. That is to say, if Jesus Christ is God incarnate, no fuller disclosure of God in terms of manhood than is given in His person is conceivable or possible. I believe, therefore, that we need to hold fast the distinction between the revelation as once given through the prophets and in Jesus Christ, and the dogma which protects this revelation, or the theology which elaborates and seeks to harmonize it with the whole of knowledge. My object in these lectures is mainly to make plain, as against the assumptions of the New Theology, the substance of the original revelation as it touches the nature of God, of sin, of Christ, &c.
