The Bible is the Book for today. It is God's own revelation. It is His very own voice speaking to each one of us. It is a book that suits every age, every clime, every class, every condition, high and low, rich and poor, learned and ignorant, old and young. It speaks in a language so simple that a child can understand it; yet it is so profound that the greatest intellect can never exhaust it.
What a privilege to possess such a Book!—to have in our hands a divine Revelation!—to have access to a Book, every line of which is given by inspiration of God!—to have a divinely given history of the past, the present, and the future! Who can estimate aright such a privilege as this? What a God we have who has given us His Word in written form and His own dear Son in human form! How can anyone fail to believe Him!
"For the Word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart." Heb. 4:1212For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. (Hebrews 4:12).
"Because sentence against
an evil work is not executed
speedily, therefore the heart
of the sons of men is fully
set in them to do evil.”
"But God commendeth His
love toward us, in that, while
we were yet sinners, Christ
died for us.”
