What is It?

“FOR IT CONTAINS THE MIND OF GOD, THE STATE OF MAN, THE WAY OF SALVATION AND THE DESTINY OF THE RIGHTEOUS AND THE WICKED.

ITS PRECEPTS ARE BINDING, ITS HISTORIES ARE TRUE, AND ITS DECISIONS ARE IMMUTABLE.

READ IT TO BE WISE, BELIEVE IT TO BE RIGHT, AND PRACTICE IT TO BE HOLY.

IT CONTAINS LIGHT TO DIRECT YOU, FOOD TO SUPPORT YOU AND COMFORT TO CHEER YOU.

IT IS THE TRAVELER’S MAP, THE PILGRAMS’S STAFF, THE PILOTS’S COMPASS, THE SOLDIERS’S SWORD AND THE CHRISTIAN’S CHARACTER.

HERE PARADISE IS RESTORED, HEAVEN OPEN AND THE GATES OF HELL ARE DISCLOSED.

CHRIST IS ITS GRAND SUBJECT, OUR GOOD ITS DESIGN, AND THE GLORY OF GOD ITS END.

IT SHOULD FILL THE MEMORY, RULE THE HEART AND GUIDE THE FEET.

READ IT SLOWLY, FREQUENTLY, PRAYERFULLY.

IT IS A MINE OF WEALTH, A PARADISE OF GLORY AND A RIVER OF PLEASURE.

IT IS GIVEN YOU IN LIFE, WILL BE OPEN AT THE JUDGMENT AND WILL BE REMEBERED FOREVER.

IT INVOKES THE HIGHEST RESPONSIBILITY, REWARDS THE GREATEST LABOR AND CONDEMNS ALL WHO TRIFLE WITH ITS HOLY CONTENTS.”
