John Wesley's Argument for the Inspiration of the Bible

John Wesley's Argument for the Inspiration of the Bible

The Bible must be the invention either of good men or angels, bad men  or devils, or of God.

1. It could not be the invention of good men or angels, for they neither would nor could make a book and tell lies all the time they were writing it, saying, "Thus saith the Lord," when it was their own invention.

2. It could not be the invention of band men or devils, for they could not make a book that commands all duty, forbids all sin, and condemns their own souls to hell for all eternity.

3. Therefore, draw the conclusion that the Bible must be given by divine inspiration.1
