Scripture-Evidence Considered: In A View Of The Controversy Between The Author And Mr. Barclay's Defenders (1728)

By Thomas Chubb

Book Overview

""Scripture-Evidence Considered: In A View Of The Controversy Between The Author And Mr. Barclay�������s Defenders"" is a book written by Thomas Chubb in 1728. The book is a response to the controversy between Chubb and the defenders of Mr. Barclay's views on scripture evidence. Chubb was a prominent English deist who believed that reason and evidence were the only reliable sources of knowledge, while Barclay was a Scottish theologian who believed in the authority of scripture. In this book, Chubb argues that the evidence presented by Barclay's defenders is insufficient to prove the authority of scripture. He also critiques the arguments of other theologians who have attempted to defend the authority of scripture. The book is a significant work in the history of religious skepticism and deism, and it offers insights into the intellectual debates of the 18th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
