This volume presents the complete transcript of a mid-19th century religious debate between Rev. Joseph Frederick Berg and Joseph Barker. The discussion centers on the origin, authority, and tendency of the Bible. The two men vigorously dispute the Bible's role in society, its historical accuracy, and its divine inspiration. Great Discussion on the Origin, Authority, & Tendency of the Bible offers a fascinating glimpse into the religious controversies of the era and provides insight into the intellectual and spiritual landscape of the time. This book will appeal to scholars of religious history, as well as those interested in the history of biblical interpretation and the dynamics of religious debates.
