Christian Union,
The charges against DIR. Briggs are three;
that he holds and teaches:
l. That Christians have found their way
to God through the church and through the
reason as truly as through the Holy Script
ures; for example. that Cardinal Newman
and James III. Martineau were both godly
men, though neither of them accepts the
Bible as the means Of grace 50 essential to
the most of Us.
2. That there are errors in the Scriptures
which no one has been able to explain
away.
8 That the Christian continues after
death to grow in the knowledge of God and
in grace.
