Response of Henry Preserved Smith: To the Charges Presented to the Presbytery of Cincinnati by the Committee of Prosecution (1892)

""Response of Henry Preserved Smith: To The Charges Presented to the Presbytery of Cincinnati by the Committee of Prosecution"" is a book written by Henry Preserved Smith, published in 1892. The book is a response to the charges presented against him by the Committee of Prosecution of the Presbytery of Cincinnati. Smith was a professor of Old Testament at Lane Theological Seminary, and his views on the Bible were deemed controversial by some members of the Presbyterian Church. The charges against him included denying the inerrancy of the Bible and promoting liberal theology. In his response, Smith defends his views and argues that they are consistent with the teachings of the Bible. He also criticizes the Committee of Prosecution for their lack of understanding of his position and for their attempts to silence dissenting voices within the church. The book provides a glimpse into the debates over biblical interpretation that were taking place within the Presbyterian Church in the late 19th century, and it remains a valuable resource for scholars of religious history and theology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
