This argument depends, of course, altogether upon the naturalistic conception of the conversion of Paul, which regards the experience as an hallucination. In the account of the conversion given in the Book of Acts, on the contrary, it is distinctly said that far from recognizing the person who appeared to him, Paul was obliged to ask the question, "Who art thou, Lord?" and then received the answer, "I am Jesus." Such a conversation between Paul and the One who appeared to him is perfectly possible i. . . Read More

Machen is quite helpful in addressing the critical claim that Paul did not know much about Jesus' life and teaching as proved by the limited material in Paul's letters. Shows the continuity between Jesus and Paul. Also, Machen argues that the center of Paul's religion is the redemptive acts of Chris
This is the classic work of apologetics which responds to the higher criticism and unbelief in Pauline scholarship at the turn of the 20th century. Machen interacts with and decimates the claims of those who see in Paul a different religion than that of Jesus Christ, and shows the foolishness of tho
After recently reading a biography on Machen, I knew I wanted to read some of his books. I think I actually ordered this one while I was in the middle of the biography - when I read about this book, immediately went and found a copy! And I'm glad I did. This book was quite dense but well worth the r
This should still be required reading in NT classes.
Machen's handling of the scholarship regarding the Scriptures is superb. The totality of issues he addresses cover arguments modernist critiques of Scripture attempt to make even 100 years later. Nigh-prophetic, it is a must-read for every Christian seeking to be involved in culture.

Getting the bad news out of the way first, this book was attractive to me because it has Valentin de Boulogne’s painting of Paul on the cover. According to Amazon the book was only 130 pages. I thought this would be a quick read...After
Not a popular level work, so he assumes a fair bit of the reader, and some of it surely went over my head. I'll need to revisit it. In saying that, the overall argument was clear and really solid. Definitely stretched me, and I'm glad I went through it. A fair bit to think about that I hadn't in det
Like a war memorial to a battle beyond living memory, this book is a monument to theological battles of the early twentieth century. Paul had stated that his gospel was "not according to man" and that he had received it through a revelation of Jesus Christ" (Gal. 1:11-12, NASB). In the late nineteen
This was a solid apologetic on the authenticity of Paul’s Epistles. It deals effectively with many of the same issues discussed today, though it’s almost 100 years old. It does however get quite technical at times, dealing with specific positions of long dead authors.
