The Plot Against Christianity (1964) by Elizabeth Kirkpatrick Dilling, 1894-1966

From the Introduction

We all know how terrifically Jesus Christ denounced the Pharisees. He said they nullified all the Commandments of God by their Tradition, “teaching for doc‐ trines the commandments of men” (Mark 7:13; Matt. 15:6-9, etc). His invective, in truth, cannot be equalled. All of Matthew 23 is like a whiplash. He likened Pharisaism to a whited sepulchre, indeed beautiful outwardly, but “inside full of dead men’s bones and of all uncleanness”. He climaxed one condemnation after another with the expletive, “Hypocrites!” He called the Pharisees children of them that killed the Prophets. He foretold they would go on killing, crucifying and persecuting until the guilt for all the righteous blood shed from Abel on down would be upon them. “Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?”, He asked.

Christ is as utterly devastating of Pharisaism in the record of John 8. Altho He admitted that His hearers were descendants of Abraham, He said they were, spiritually, of the devil. He told them:

“Ye are of you father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because the truth is not in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar and the father of it” (John 8:44).

Note: That the pages have been rotated, split and de-skewed so the numbering and number of pages is much larger than the original scan.
