![]() | Two Classic Works Published by Gilbert West
In the 1740s, while studying at Oxford, English poet Gilbert West and the Baron George Lyttelton set out together to disprove two major events in Christian history: Saul's conversion and the Resurrection. After a year of painstaking research, each eventually concluded that Saul was genuinely converted and Jesus genuinely rose from the dead, and they became Christians. This work is Gilbert West's letter reporting his findings to Lyttelton. West examines the prophecies of the Old Testament and the credibility of the New Testament, concluding ultimately the Christianity was indeed divine revelation. Observations on the Conversion and Apostleship of St. Paul: being an arrgumentative and rational defence of the christian revelation; deduced from the peculiar circumstances of St. Paul before his conversion, and the effects which followed it; as exemplified in his life, and in the doctrine; which he preached. In a letter to Gilbert West, Esq. by Lord George Lyttelton. Observations on the History and Evidences of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ by Gilbert West, Esq.
