""The Two Tests: The Supernatural Claims of Christianity Tried by Two of Its Own Rules"" by Lionel Lisle is a critical treatise written in the late 19th century that examines the supernatural claims of Christianity through the lens of modern thought and reason. Lisle challenges the historical and supernatural narratives found in the New Testament, specifically focusing on the birth and miracles of Jesus Christ. The book aims to question the validity of these claims and encourages a more rational and evidence-based approach to faith and religious belief. Lisle begins by outlining his reasons for questioning the Christian faith, emphasizing his desire to help those who are struggling with doubt. Drawing on the works of thinkers like Dr. Chalmers and Dean Stanley, he critiques the reliability of the Gospel accounts, particularly regarding the supernatural events surrounding Jesus' life. Lisle highlights inconsistencies in the testimonies of the Gospel writers and points out the lack of reliable eyewitness evidence. The book challenges readers to reconsider the foundations of their beliefs by critically evaluating the evidence presented in Christian doctrine and history.
