INTRODUCTION TO LOGIC
TEACHER'S MANUAL
J. Parnell McCarter
"The science of reasoning is of very great service in searching into and unraveling all sorts of questions that come up in Scripture...The validity of logical sequences is not a thing devised by men, but it is observed and noted by them that they may be able to learn and teach it; for it exists eternally in the reason of things, and has its origin with God."-
Augustine
