Fr AC ET he Christian religion takes its stand upon the ground of history. It is not primarily either a system of philosophy or an ethical code. It is what it is because it maintains that certain things have actually happened in the past. The documents from which our knowledge of these events is in the first instance derived must therefore be of unique and permanent importance in all Christian eyes. For more than three hundred years the Church of England has laid particular emphasis upon the study of theS criptures, because it is convinced that whenever theB ible is neglected religion will always decay. But there is now a feeling abroad that the authority of theN ew Testament has been seriously shaken by recent studies, if it is not in danger of being destroyed outright. On the surface there are some grounds for such misgivings. But it would be more accurate to say that our conception of the nature of the authority which attaches to theN ew Testament, and of the way in which we ought to invoke it, has undergone a change than that the authority itself has been impaired. Critical study of theN ew Testament is to be welcomed, inasmuch as it is one avenue of approach towards that knowledge of the truth for which the Church of England prays twice every day. To fear its conclusions is to stand convicted of lack ofF aith. Faith and Courage are very closely allied :and Christian Faith constrains us to recognize that every addition to our knowledge must strengthen the claim upon our loyalty of Him who is Himself the Truth. No false opinion which can be entertained about Him can exalt His character. No mist of piety through which we can view Him can make Him appear greater thanH ereally (Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)

Eton College.
Educated at Eton College and King"s College, Cambridge, he was ordained deacon in 1904 and priest in 1905 by the Bishop of Manchester. He subsequently served as Assistant Curate at Street Peter’s, Swinton, Salford, 1904-1907. Lecturer at Selwyn College, Cambridge, 1907-1910.
Principal of Leeds Clergy School, and Lecturer of Leeds Parish Church, 1910-1919.
During the First World War he served as Acting Chaplain of HMS Valiant, January 1916–December 1917 and an Acting Chaplain, R North, 1916-1918. His next appointment was as Vicar of Street Michael and All Angels Church, Headingley, Leeds, 1918-1933, later becoming Honorary Canon of Ripon, 1926-1933, and Dean of Wells, 1933-1950.
He was also Examining Chaplain to the Bishop of Norwich from 1910. Proctor in Convocation, 1924-1933.
Chaplain to the King, 1926–1933 and President of the Somerset Archaeological Society, 1943-1944.
He served additionally as general editor of Crockford"s Clerical Directory between 1921 and 1944. His main task in this respect was to write many of the anonymous prefaces for which the directory was becoming celebrated, offering an overview of recent events in the church. His other ecclesiastical commitments would have allowed little time for participating in the more routine aspects of producing the directory.
Between 1942-1947 he also edited his local diocesan magazine, the Bath & Wells Diocesan Gazette.
Dean Malden was the son of Charles Edward Malden, Recorder of Thetford, and Sarah Fanny Malden, daughter of Sir Richard Mayne. His politics were reportedly "High Tory with a hint of Erastianism".
In his latter years he became a familiar figure in Wells and elsewhere, typically wearing a frock coat and top hat.
