This collection of the writings of the late Dr. Warfield deals, with rare exegetical skill and unusual command of the relevant critical literature, with what the Bible teaches concerning the person of Christ and His work as Redeemer. Warfield stresses the fact that the only Jesus discoverable in the New Testament is a supernatural Jesus and over against those who commend a merely human Jesus he maintains that it is “the desupernaturalized Jesus which is the mythical Jesus, who never had any existence, the postulation of whose existence explains nothing and leaves the whole historical development hanging in the air.” Among the chief merits of these writings is the contribution they make toward an understanding of the distinctive nature of Christianity and the help they afford in distinguishing between genuine Christianity and its counterfeits.
