CHAPTER V.

THE FOURTH GOSPEL.

"Every trace has vanished of the great nameless one."

Baur.

"The denial of the authenticity of John's Gospel is a source of far greater difficulties than its acknowledgment."

Ritschl.

"The doctrine of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, is the fundamental doctrine of Christianity. Without it Christianity, as a theological and as a philosophical system, cannot rank above Rabbinism and Mahommedanism."

Bunsen.
