Beschreibung

Inspiration, Not Guidance, Nor Intuition: Or The Plenary Inspiration Of The Holy Scriptures is a book written by Eleazar Lord and first published in 1858. The book is a treatise on the inspiration of the Bible, arguing that it is not simply a product of human guidance or intuition, but rather a divinely inspired text. Lord asserts that the Bible is the word of God, and that it is completely free from error or contradiction. He argues that the Bible's inspiration is evidenced by its internal consistency, its prophetic accuracy, and its transformative power. The book also examines various objections to the idea of biblical inspiration and offers responses to these objections. Overall, Inspiration, Not Guidance, Nor Intuition is a thoughtful and persuasive defense of the idea that the Bible is a divinely inspired text.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
