Excerpt from The Gospel Miracles: In Their Relation to Christ and Christianity Acts ii.22: Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders, signs, which God did by him, in the midst of you. In entering on the subject which is to occupy our attention throughout these lectures, it is needful that we should have a clear idea of the place which an inquiry into the credibility and evidential value of miracles has in the investigation of the nature and origin of Christianity. These are not the first topics that challenge consideration in the examination of the Scriptures, nor are they dependent for their right adjustment on our acceptance of the doctrine that the Evangelists and Apostles were divinely inspired. It is often alleged, however, that the defenders of the faith are guilty of disingenuousness, inasmuch as, at one time, they use the inspiration and authority of Scripture for the purpose of proving the reality of the miracles, while at another, they employ the reality of the miracles for the purpose of establishing the inspired authority of the Scriptures.
