At this point I reach the end of my pleading. The ground I desire to take and persuade others to take in regard to the whole matter is reached when I have cited His own sayings, "I am the Truth," and "Thy Word is Truth." "Wherever I have seen the print of His shoe in the earth, there I have coveted to set my foot too." Here I stand. I can do no other. Here I would persuade my readers, from the least to the greatest, to take their stand also, in reliance upon this Word:—

"Hearken unto Me, ye that know righteousness,
The people in whose heart is My Law;
Fear ye not the reproach of men,

Neither be ye dismayed at their revilings.
For the moth shall eat them like a garment,
And the worm shall eat them like wool:
But My righteousness shall be for ever,
And My salvation unto all generations."

I then undertook to show that the Divine Authority of the Holy Scriptures is denied in the published writings of Professor Driver.

In accepting my undertaking, your Grace was pleased to desire that I should neither involve the subject in technicalities of scholarship, nor merely add one to the many popular effusions which are the outcome of this controversy.
