Returning to the Faith

Some years ago there was much discussion in theological circles due to the theories of Dr. Charles A. Briggs, and his suspension from the ministry by the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church on the charge of heresy. It is claimed now that after following the devious wanderings of New Thought and higher criticism to the ultimate, Dr. Briggs announces once more his faith in the Scriptures of truth as the revealed will of God, and the Christ of the Bible as the only means of salvation. It is to be hoped that he has indeed truly returned to simple faith in the Bible record. If he has, he is a grand exception to the scores whose faith has been overthrown and who are to-day wandering in skepticism and unbelief as a result of the philosophy which has been taught by Dr. Briggs and other higher critics.
