From the Publisher's Preface. THE two discourses composing this book may be regarded as the outgrowth of recent discussions on the credibility of miracles as recorded in the Scriptures, of which discussion Chicago seemed to be the storm-center. The one by Bishop Merrill was delivered, by request, before the Methodist Ministers' Association of that city, and so satisfactory was it to that body that it was unanimously adopted as the sense of the meeting on the question then being so vigorously discussed by the public press. It was printed in the Northwestern Christian Advocate, and also issued in pamphlet form, and many thousands of copies circulated. At the request of the Publishers, the Bishop has revised and enlarged it considerably for presentation in this volume. A few weeks later Bishop H. W. Warren addressed the Methodist Social Union of Chicago on the same subject, by request of that body. This is a representative body, and the audience of over seven hundred, mostly composed of the laity, was greatly delighted with the address, and requests for its publication became both numerous and insistent; so much so that we were glad to be able to comply. As the two discourses treat the subject from different standpoints, and cover the ground so completely, we have thought it wise to issue them in a single volume, to which arrangement both bishops have very promptly assented. We send them forth with the hope and prayer that they may satisfy many who have become entangled with doubts, and strengthen those who believe in miracles as recorded in the Holy Scriptures.
