mond, Va.
This volume consists of the hampton lee
lures for the present year. and are printed
pretty much the same as delivered. They
are eight in number under the headings:
What Christianity Is Christ supernatu-
raj Yet Natural " The Supernatural Christ
Historical. - The Christ of Dogma, the Christ
Of Scripture God Revealed in Christ"
Man Revealed in Christ" Christ Our Mas
ter, Christ Our Example and New Life"
They aim at presenting the subject of the
incarnation rather 20 the general reader than
TO the professed theological student. They
express the principle that all right theory
emerges out OF experience, and that the right
method or philosophy is not q priorl abstract
or external, but is based in each department
OF inquiry upon "a profound and sympathetic
study OF facts.
