Excerpt from The Higher Criticism: An Address

Nearly half a century later there arose Ferdinand Christian Baur, the originator of the Tubingen School, who caught much of his inspiration as a scholar and critic from Eichhorn, and was accounted by his con temporaries a man of exceptional gifts and attain ments. Like Eichhorn he denied miracles. Assum ing the impossibility of any departure from natural law, he entered, only to vitiate, the whole field of his research. He created theological distinctions in the Epistles of Paul and of Peter, which were the creation of his own fertile brain, deprecated the supernatural element of both, and pronounced the religious zeal of great leaders of religious thought simply the fervor of speculation and the pride of Opinion.
