To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" There is undoubtedly a disciplinary moral effect in the open choice of truth, where opposing possibilities are to be balanced and the decision for the more probable is partially influenced by a love of the nobler and grander alternative in believing. At least it is not conceivable that a quality of character has been added to a man when he adopts a proposition in geometry which he simply could not deny unless he was ready for a madhouse. Religious faith is a more live, more voluntary thing th...an that. And it is a more than superficial suggestion that herein may lie the very reason why religious truth, historical or theological, is never presented to men in a fashion to compel acceptance. The compulsion would de- stroy the live assimilating power of the soul. Therefore, to grant that single incidents of scrip- gS Beyond the Natural Order tural history cannot be set beyond doubt does not admit that they must fall short of " moral cer- tainty. " Taken not singly but collectively, not as arithmetical problems but as pictures of life, not for idle tales of imagination but for — what they purport to be — a serious effort to expHcate God's relations to mankind, the chapters of the Bible story rise by degrees of cumulative dignity to a point where their total effect challenges the honest heart — not irresistibly but with the power of a mighty spiritual magnetism — to come and take them for its creed and counsel.
