Excerpt from The Place of Scripture in the Church in Ancient and Modern Times The following lectures were delivered in substance at Croydon during the month of September, 1916. They are printed very much as they were read. Owing to pressure of time some considerable omissions had to be made, so that not all that is printed was actually read. I have also endeavoured to clear up obscurities and in a few places I have expanded what I had written for delivery. It is not claimed that the whole question of the use of the Bible is fully discussed in these pages: it is hoped that attention may be drawn in them to some points which appear to be overlooked in the present day.
