Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Scripture Doctrine of Miracles Displayed, Vol. 2 of 2
They waste their time and misapply their talents in seek ing metaphysical sophisms, by which they pretend to show that the existence of a miracle never can be proved. But in the eyes of common-sense their argu ments can have no more weight than the well-known argument of Zeno against the possibility of motion. If in this these gentlemen act against their conscience, and seek to impose upon their fellow-creatures, it is certainly an unpardonable insult to mankind; but if they really think as they speak, it is one of the most humiliating proofs of human weakness, and shows into what a depth of folly man is capable of falling, when, proudly trusting to his own powers, he plunges without' a guide into the mazes of imagination.
