Excerpt from Natural Laws and Gospel Teachings

In the New Testament we have four distinct narratives of the Life of the great teacher, Jesus of Nazareth. These were written by four different authors, each of whom professes to give, to the extent of his plan and purpose in writing, a true account of his birth and parentage, habits and character, teachings and miracles, sufferings and death.

No records, no writings of any character, ancient or modern, have been so closely studied or been subjected to such varied and severe criticism as have these four brief biographies. The ordeal through which they have passed is without a parallel in the history of literature. Nothing that is embraced in them, nothing that is connected with them, has escaped the most searching scrutiny.
