Excerpt from The Doctrine of Holy Scripture: Respecting the Atonement The Atonement is a pure matter of revelation. Whether as regards the truths which it embodies, the principles on which it rests, or the ends to which it is conducive, we have no reliable means of in formation beyond what God has been pleased to give us in His word. In approaching such a subject our question ought ever to be, What is written in the Scriptures How readest thou Nor can we be too careful lest we advance any position but such as, on full and fair inquiry, has been found to be either expressly set down in the Holy Scriptures, or by good and necessary consequence deducible from them. Accordingly, I have chosen the inductive in pre ference to the ordinary dogmatic method of dis cussing this important subject, believing the former method to be not only the more satisfactory to an intelligent inquirer, but at the same time the more consistent with that reverence which is due to the oracles of God.
