1817 Aug. 30 Not Paul

Ch. Paul's Style §. Obscurity disproves inspiration

25 or 1.

In Paul's discourses
are characters disproving
the supposition
of special commission
from God
Principal & obscurity

26 or 2

To all persons for
whose use it is designed
the conception
conveyed by a discourse
should be clear, correct
and compleat as may be.

27 or 3

Only in proportion
as it is understood
can any good expected
from it be produced.

28 or 4

Evils produced in so
far as it fails of being
understood—
1. Evil of
2. Evil of

29 or 5

Proportioned to the
practical importance
of the subject are both
these evils.

Ch. Pauls Style.

§ Obscurity disproves unfinished
30 or 6

In so far as such
failure has place, the
means are ill adapted
to their end.

31 or 7

To employ means ill
adapted to the end
is to be deficient in
wisdom: if they are
known to be so and
the end known to be
good - an ordinary benevolence.

32 or 8

Under such deficiencies
how can any discourses
be now believed
to be the results
of a special commission
from God?

33 or 9.

Objection - difficult
as are these discourses
they admitt of some
explanation: some
explanation given,
difficulty is at one an
end.

34 or 10.

Answer. (Saving conception
of which aftwds)
explanation is substitution
by it the obscurity
or ambiguity
i e the imperfection is
admitted —

Ch. Pauls Style.
§ Obscurity disproved inspiration
  35 or 11

Conseditur— By
length of time and
change of circumstance
(i e deprivation of a
temporary explanatory
circumstance)
what was clear might
be rendered obscure
or ambiguous

36 or 12

But the Vindication
applies not beyond
the particular facts
thus obscured. On the
defender it rests to
shew that by that
course not by deficiency
in ability or probity
the obscurity was
produced.

37 or 13

By no such supposition
can obscurity
be consistent with the
supposition of dictation
by God. Employing
means unsufficient to the end
can never be reconcilable
to the supposition
of infinite wisdom.

38 or 14
          
           

Irreconcileable is the
supposition of the name
of divine wisdom & and benevolence
as obscurity:

Ch Pauls Style.
  38 or 14 continued

it is altogether favourable
to the supposition
of human improbity: i-e imposture

39 or 15.

To a false prophet
obscurity affords an
always open refuge.
He may thus hazard
whatever affords a hope
of wrong working his dishonest
purpose, without committing
himself.

Of the false prophet
verbal obscurity is
the refuge, as if the
thief, real
