The Word — Part 2

“The words that I speak unto you, they are
spirit, and they are life” (John 6:63).

THE BIBLE IS NOT ONLY THE WORLD’S BEST SELLER, IT IS ALSO MAN’S BEST PURCHASE.

Woodrow Wilson, 28th president of the United States, said, “I am sorry for people who do not read the Bible every day. I wonder why they deprive themselves of the strength and pleasure.”

On another occasion he wrote, “The Bible is the Word of Life. Read it, and find this out for yourself. Read …not only little snatches here and there, but long passages — that will really be the road to the heart of it. When you have read the Bible you will have found it the key to your own heart and your own happiness.”

John Quincy Adams, 6th president of the United States, remarked, “I have for many years made it the practice of my life to read through the Bible once a year.”

Abraham Lincoln said, “I believe the Bible is the best gift God has ever given to man. All the good from the Saviour of the world is communicated to us through this book.”
