The Bible Contains:
The mind of God, the
state of man, the way of salvation,
the doom of sinners, and the happiness of
believers.
It's doctrines are holy, it's precepts are
binding, it's
histories are true, and it's decisions are
immutable.
Read it to be wise, believe it to be safe and
practice it to
be holy. It contains a light to direct you,
food to support
you, and comfort to cheer you. It is the
travelers map, the
pilgrims staff, the pilots compass, and the
soldier's sword,
and the Christians charter.
Where paradise is restored , Heaven opened,
and the
gates of hell disclosed. Christ is it's grand
subject, our good it's design, and the glory
of God it's end. It should fill the memory,
rule the heart, and guide the feet. Read it
slowly, frequently and prayerfully. It is a
mind of wealth, a paradise of glory and a
river of pleasure. It is given to you in life,
will be open at judgment, and be remembered
forever. It involves the highest
responsibility, rewards the greatest labor,
and condemns all who trifle with it's holy
contents.
