Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Christian Review, 1839, Vol. 4 It is obvious to remark, that a book assuming such a title as Religion of the Bible, ought, at least, to be written in such a spin: as to commend it to general acceptance. In this respect, the name which Dr. Skinner has chosen pledges him to nothing which he has not fully done. A volume of religious discourses, containing more of what is fundamental to Christianity, and less of what is extrane ous or sectarian, we know not where to find. Those topics in which the true disciples of Christ ma disagree, are all excluded; and those only discussed an enforced, in which they have a common interest, and from which spring the obligations which they all acknowledge. If in omitting topics such as those connected with the external ordinances of the gospel, he has not attempted to give the whole religion of the Bible, yet such views as he has chosen to present, are indisputably supported by the au thority of that sacred volume.
