The Story of Adam and Eve Discounted

AND now comes the Pacific Christian Advocate, the representative of Methodist Episcopal Church on the Pacific Coast, through its contributor Rev. George H. Bennett, throwing its influence in favor of that subtle infidelity known as the higher criticism, which discounts the Bible record of creation. Says Dr. Bennett: “The story of Adam and Eve is a beautiful allegory, as also is the story of Santa Claus which we relate to our children.”
It is to be regretted that Christian journals and Christian ministers should lend their influence to the propagation of a belief which in fact as truly sets at naught the Scriptures of Truth as do the open avowals of professed skeptics.
