      THE BIBLE

"All Scripture is given by inspiration of God"
                              II Timothy 3:16
     One time, when a great statesman was at the point of death, he asked one of his attendants to hand him the Book. "What book?" the attendant asked. "There is but one Book, the Bible," the statesman replied.
   Yes, the Bible is a Book, but it is the greatest Book that the world has ever known. In no other book could one find such deep thoughts, simple language, and convicting and comforting words as in the Bible. I believe the Bible from cover to cover, from Genesis to Revelation, from beginning to end, from first to last. I believe it to be a Holy Bible, and not a Bible full of holes, or a Bible with a single hole. The whole Bible is Holy, yet, behold, there is not a single hole in the whole of the Holy Bible.
"All Scripture is given by inspiration of God" (II Tim. 3:16),
and
"The prophecy came not in old time by the will of man:
but holy men of God spake
as they were moved by the Holy Ghost." (II Peter 1:21).
   If you hear some good-for-nothing, sophisticated, aristocratic-sounding professor, or preacher, or teacher, or doctor, or any body else who says that he does not believe that the Bible is the Word of God, you can just put it down that that person has never been born again and saved from sin, and that he is on his way to an eternal, hopeless hell, regardless of how many times he might try to tell you that there is no hell.
   People try to do away with the truth of God's Word because the Word condemns them of sin. They are not willing to let the Lord save them from their sin. The thief does not like to believe the Bible, because the Bible says, "Thou shalt not steal." The drunkard does not like the Bible because it says, "No drunkard shall inherit the kingdom of God." The murderer would like to do away with the Bible because it tells him, "Thou shalt not kill." So you see, all disbelief of the head goes back to disbelief or sin in the heart. You may take a hog and give him cake and pie, tomato cocktail and orange-ade, but he'll eat it like a hog because he is a hog at heart. You may catch a monkey and train it to drink coffee, and eat grape nuts, and you might even get it to smoke a cigarette, (that is if it didn't think it would be too sissy), but turn the monkey loose in the woods and he'll swing by his tail. He's a monkey at heart. You may take some person and educate him, and put him in the best of society, place him on a stick in some classroom, yet he might tell you that he does not believe in the Word of God. It is because he is a sinner at heart.
