Biographies and Autobiographies

  • "Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ." - 1 Corinthians 11:1.
  •  "The venerable dead are waiting in my library to entertain me and relieve me from the nonsense of surviving mortals." - Samuel Davies.
  • "History is a record of past events, and to deserve the name of history the events recorded must be authentic, for 'cunningly devised fables' are not history. Authentic history is of the essential nature of testimony. A witness on the stand gives a statement of facts, evidence, testimony. So true is it that not only minor matters of litigation, but even 'death and life are in the power of the tongue' (Prov. 18:21). A very large portion of the Bible is historical. The first words in it announce one of the most important of historical facts: 'In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth,' The great importance of this statement appears from the speculations of heathen philosophers, and self--styled scientists in our own age. For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water (2 Peter 3:5, AV). Also many of the Psalms are historical, epitomizing the previous facts recorded in the Old Testament, that these might be more indelibly impressed upon the mind and heart of God's people, and that they 'might not forget his works;' for then they 'forget God their Saviour (Ps. 16:13, 21). Moreover, the origin and progress of the visible church in the world, under different dispensations of mercy, is matter of historical record. She is on earth the only immortal corporation; and since the canon of inspired Scripture closed, she has had no one infallible historian. Many, indeed, have undertaken 'to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among the disciples of Christ;' but 'their witness agreed not together' (Luke 1:1; Mark 14:56). Those who take as guides in searching the history of the church, Mosheim, Milner, or many others, are following false guides, whose delineations portray the features of the 'scarlet lady' rather than the 'Lamb's wife.' In this historical fact — the almost universal misrepresentations of the spouse of Christ, the intelligent reader may discover the reason for a select class, whom the Lord Jesus expressly distinguishes from all others as 'his witnesses,' (Rev. 11:3), and the necessity for their testimony. These and these only are 'children that will not lie' (Isa. 63:8); 'and in their mouth is found no guile' (Rev.14:5). Hence, the necessity of historical testimony. Again, history interprets prophecy, which is an ever increasing evidence that the Holy Scriptures are from God. How could it be known when the canon was settled but mainly by history? Or how can antichrist be identified, or the witnesses themselves but by history? For the doctrines, the worship, government and discipline of the church have all been misrepresented, counterfeited, and even the church herself (Rev. 17:18)! Thus it is apparent that the only way by which the witnesses can identify the true church is by comparing doctrine and order with the alone infallible rule, the Bible; and this comparing involves reasoning — argument; history and argument do, therefore, constitute the church's testimony and supply her Terms of Communion, by which she is distinguished from the 'flocks of the companions.' Tell me, O thou whom my soul loveth, where thou feedest, where thou makest thy flock to rest at noon: for why should I be as one that turneth aside by the flocks of thy companions (Song of Solomon 1:7, AV)? - David Steele, Reminiscences, 1883, pp. 202-205).
