Excerpt from The Miracles: Helps to Faith, Not Hindrances That there must be Christian experience in the soul before the force of that evidence can be felt; and to have Christian experience there must be faith in Christ; and to have a rational faith in him there must be evidence of his divine com mission of some external sort presented to and received by the mind. It is all very well to say with Coleridge, 'evidences of Christianity! I am weary of the word: make a man feel the want of it, and it may safely be left to its own evi deuces but even when he does feel the want of it, the question faces him, On what ground am I to believe that this religion is from heaven And for answer you cannot refer him to his own experience, for he has no Christian experience yet, and can have none until he have received Jesus as the Divine Redeemer neither will he be satis tied with your experience, though even that would be external evidence to him. He wants some direct proof that this gospel is from God and so far as we can see, there is no such proof which you can give him but that of miracles.
