About The Bible 2

Abraham Lincoln: I am profitably engaged in reading the Bible. Take all of this Book that you can by reason and the balance by faith, and you will live and die a better man. It is the best Book which God has given to man.

Woodrow Wilson: When you have read the Bible, you will know it is the word of God, because you will have found it the key to your own heart, your own happiness and your duty.

When the late Queen Victoria was asked the secret of England’s greatness, she took down a copy of the Scriptures, and pointing to the Bible, she said, “That Book explains the power of Great Britain.”

Daniel Webster once affirmed: “If we abide by the principles taught in the Bible, our country will go on prospering and to prosper.”

These great leaders truly believed that the only sure foundation of a nation’s belief and practice was God’s Word.

Two hundred fifty years ago Voltaire said: Fifty years from now the world will hear no more of the Bible. Fifty years later in the house of Voltaire in Paris, where he uttered these words, the Geneva Bible Society was doing a thriving business, while Voltaire was a name unwept, unhonoured, and unsung.

Dr. J. Vernon McGee: The Bible is probably the most maligned Book that ever has been written. It has been attacked as no other book has ever been attacked. Yet it has ministered and does minister to literally millions of people around the globe, and it has been doing this now for several thousand years. A Book of this nature and with this tremendous impact upon the human family certainly deserves the intelligent consideration of men and women.

Sir Walter Scott, on his deathbed, asked Lockhart to read to him. Puzzled, as he scanned the shelf of books that Walter Scott had written, he asked, ‘What book shall I read?’ And Sir Walter replied, ‘Why do you ask that question? There is but one book; bring the Bible.’ There is only one Book for any man who is dying, but it is also THE Book for any man who is living. A great many folk do not get interested in the Bible until they get to the end of their lives or until they get into a great deal of difficulty. While it is wonderful to have a Book in which you can find comfort in a time like that, it is also a Book for you to LIVE . . . in the full vigor of life. It is a Book to face life with today, and it’s the Book which furnishes the only sure route through this world and on into the next world. It is the only Book that can enable us to meet the emergencies and cushion the shocks that come to us in life.
