QR code
"Supernatural Religion, Vol. 3 (of 3)" by Walter Richard Cassels is a detailed analytical treatise written in the late 19th century. This work serves as an inquiry into the validity of divine revelation, specifically evaluating the miraculous events and claims presented in the Acts of the Apostles. Cassels's exploration aims to critically assess the authenticity of these miraculous accounts while engaging deeply with historical and theological arguments relating to early Christianity. The
opening of the text introduces the author’s critical approach as he begins to evaluate the external evidence supporting the miraculous claims within the Acts of the Apostles. He emphasizes the document's reliance on miraculous occurrences, highlighting the numerous instances in which the Apostles perform extraordinary acts such as healings and confrontations with supernatural forces. Cassels argues for a skeptical consideration of such claims, calling for a higher standard of evidence due to their inherently incredible nature. His analysis also hints at the document's largely absent historical references prior to the second century, questioning the credibility of the narratives presented within the text.
