Foreword - In these days of increasing apostasy as to the Person of Christ, it is indeed refreshing to read the solid testimony of one who contended for the faith almost two centuries ago.
Early in the nineteenth century, Unitarianism appeared and became very articulate in the religious writings of New England leaders. God raised up an able champion against them in the person of Samuel Green (17921834), who wrote a most able defense of the truth of the deity of Christ. It was in the form of a pamphlet, printed and circulated (1848) by the American Tract Society of New York City, under the title,
“More Than One Hundred
Scriptural and Incontrovertible Arguments
for Believing in the Supreme Divinity
of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ”
The present publishers have felt it would be timely to make this treatise available for use today in combating the fatal delusion of Arius (280-336 A.D.). His heresy in denying the deity of Christ caused a great schism in the church, and the false doctrine has never been eradicated. While it was pushed with vigor over a century ago by the Unitarians and is still held by them, its most active propagators today are Jehovah’s Witnesses. It is also currently found in Modernism of many denominations and more subtly in Neo-orthodoxy. Accordingly, we present to our readers this reprint. We have felt free to make some slight changes in the text of this article, but such alterations in no way affect or color the author’s basic thesis.
While we commend the author’s able presentation of the basic truth of the deity of Christ as co-joined with His humanity, we would caution our readers against any allowance of human speculation about the Person of our Lord Jesus Christ. To try to ferret out the mysteries of His Person or to seek to draw a line of demarcation between His deity and His humanity may only lead one into error or, at best, produce barrenness of soul. There is a verse which is important in this connection: “No man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal Him” (Matt. 11:27). The Son has revealed the Father, but it is not said that the Father reveals the Son. The statement stands, “No man knoweth the Son, but the Father.” The mysteries of the Son of God, that One who was both God and man in one Person, are inscrutable. They are not to be known by the keenest human perception.
When Moses was in the presence of God at the burning bush, he was instructed, “Draw not nigh hither: put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground” (Ex. 3:5). Let us realize that when we are discussing the Person of the Lord Jesus we are treading on holy ground and that the unshod foot of reverence alone becomes us. May we feed upon Him as the bread which came down from heaven (John 6:56) and have God’s thoughts about His Son (1 John 1:3) and never allow any human speculation to enter into our thoughts or discussions of Him.
May the Lord be pleased to use the testimony of this servant as of one who “being dead yet speaketh.”
