by Thomas Verner Moore

Excerpt from Inspiration of the Scriptures; Morell s Theory Reviewed

If then He has spoken, the query arises is it in a form ac cessible to all the high and low, the ignorant and learned, the weak of mind as well as the mighty? And is it in a form sufficiently reliable to be made trustworthy to all who have access to it? These questions are equivalent to the inquiry, is such a thing possible to the human soul as the inspiration of the Almighty? If so, can its results be made certainly available to any other mind than that which originally receives it? This throws open to us the whole question of inspiration, its psychological possibility, its nature, its extent, and its ex istence as a fact in the writings of the Old and New Testa ment.
