Orr’s argument
is that revelation came before inspiration to write the Scriptures, and had God
never inspired men to write, the revelation of the Gospel would have been just
as much a reality as it is with an inspired written record. While this is true,
it would appear that this fact would have been meaningful only to those who
lived in the same generation with the men who received the revelation and who
could speak authoritatively. After nineteen hundred years, how do we know what
these men spoke unless we have an inerrant record? It seems to us that what Orr
calls “the older method” is still the necessary one for today.
