Excerpt from The Many-Sided Paul: A Study of the Character of the Great Apostle as Unfolded in the Acts and the Pauline Epistles

I deem it unnecessary to justify myself for adding another to the almost endless list of essays-upon this noble subject. It is one of the best evidences Of the divine source of the apos tle's power and grandeur of spiritual stature that the world never tires of our theme. The study of St. Paul is like the study of life itself, - so long as men recognize as features of human thought and character the struggle with guilt and sin, and the aspiration after holiness and God and a blessed immortality, so long will the Christian consciousness gladly welcome new trib utes to the wondrous personality of this slave Of Christ; so long will the last word concern ing him yet remain unsaid.

I am not unfamiliar with many of the radical and unsympathetic treatises on the general sub ject that have appeared in English and German during the past three decades; but I do not deem it necessary here to name even a partial list of them. A good bibliography of the subject.
