Some modernists reject a part of these great
truths, and some reject all.
LIBERAL is another term stolen by infidels ashamed of their own
name. They are no more liberal in a good sense than others.
A RATIONALIST is not entitled to the term, because he is often
more innocent of reasoning than his opponents. Reason is not opposed
to revelation. We believe in an inspired revelation, because it is
reasonable to do so. Rationalism is another camouflage for
infidelity. We can have some respect for an honest professed skeptic,
but how can we respect a man who insists on adding hypocrisy to his
infidelity, that, by so doing, he may make greater havoc of the
church? Modernists give such a diluted interpretation to inspiration,
to the statements of Scripture, and the Apostles' Creed, and the
creeds of the churches, that all may mean little or nothing, and the
floodgates of infidelity and atheism are opened wide.
It has been truly said, "If the Bible is not really inspired, it is
the greatest fraud ever perpetrated on mankind; for, from lid to lid,
it claims to be the word of God." Likewise, if Moses was not inspired,
he was the greatest liar of history.
