Thanks to Wayne Sparkman at the PCA Historical Society for posting an essay by the redoubtable Geerhardus Vos that is as timely today as it was when it first appeared in 1905: “The Christian Faith and the Truthfulness of Bible History,” Princeton Theological Review 4.3 (July 1906): 289-305.

Thank you for this link! I love Vos, and his firm stand on the truthfulness of Bible history has been profoundly influencing me recently through the medium of his book on biblical theology (my new third-favorite book). This is an excellent essay!
