The Grounds of Christianity Examined by Comparing The New Testament with the Old

"The Grounds of Christianity Examined by Comparing The New Testament with the Old" by George Bethune English is an early 1800s study that looks closely at Christian ideas, especially how the second part of the Bible connects to the prophecies of a savior in the first part. The writer checks out what old Christian thinkers said to see if Jesus really fits what Jewish prophets predicted about the Messiah. The book starts by saying it's important to really think about and prove what we believe when it comes to religion. The author says it's important to honestly talk about religious ideas. The author says that understanding and validating religious beliefs should be done through reasoned examination. He believes that if something is true, it will stand up to being questioned closely. He plans to show how the New Testament talks about Jesus and whether that matches what the Old Testament says about the Messiah.
