“How have the mighty fallen...I love C.S. Lewis, but in this book he rather makes a fool of himself, falling prey to the popular thought of the day--Higher Criticism. He goes so far as to undermine the inspiration of scripture. Oh, he doesn't say it isn't God's word, but it is firstly a human collection of works that contains error but also is somehow transmuted by God into something that can be used as His word. I'm sure the beloved saintly author knows better by now. There are some genuine sparks of insight and some extremely convicting passages, but if you read this, you must do so with a mind toward forgiving the fly in the ointment. ”
