( O ^ nuniiedfi-om p . 150 . ) In the fifth Sermon of the first-volume , the apostle Paul i * vindicated from an imputation , attempted to be fixeid xipon hinj by Mr , Baine , of being a false witness to the resurrection o £ 6
Jesus Christ ( text , Acts xxii . 19 % C And I said , Lprdy they know that I imprisoned , aiid hdat 411 every synagogue ^ tii ^ ni that believed on thee , " ) The discourse begins with a clear and forcible statement of
the evidence for Christianity , derived from the conversion of this apostle , whose testimony in favor of the gospel is gene «» rally looked upon as entitled to greater credit , from his having been once an unbeliever and enemy ; although the author of the Age of Reason endeavours to prove it insufficient , from those
very circumstances which have been regarded as increasing its authority . Pained argument is * ; " Paul confesses f that he did not believe a word about Christ ' s resurrection himself , at the time i % is said to have happened : his evidence , then , is like that of a man who comes into a court of justice to swear that ; what he had Sworn before is false /* It is to this objection that Mr . K . offers a reply ; after first correcting the objector ' s mistake concerning the supposed silence of the five hundred
witnesses mentioned by the apostle , and shewing that the appeal to them might b ^ ve been easily contradicted , if made without foundation . That the change of a jnan * s opinion respecting Facts entirely destroys > t he credibility of his testimony , is true only when the observation is applied to those who have been eye or ear-wit ^
