THE BIBLE

"THY WORD IS A LAMP UNTO MY FEET, AND A LIGHT UNTO MY PATH. " Psalms 119:105

"This book contains the MIND OF GOD, the STATE OF MAN, the WAY OF SALVATION, the DOOM OF SINNERS. 

Its DOCTRINES ARE HOLY, its PRECEPTS are BINDING, its HISTORIES ARE TRUE AND its DECISIONS IMMUTABLE. READ IT TO BE WISE, BELIEVE IT T O BE SAFE, 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 PILGRIM’S ST AFF, the PILOT'S COMPASS, the SOLDIER'S SWORD and the CHRISTIAN'S CHARTER. 

Here PARADISE IS RESTORED, HE AVEN OPENED, and the GATES OF HELL DISCLOSED. 

CHRIST is its GRAND OBJECT, our GOOD, its DESIGN and the GLORY OF GOD its end. 

It should FILL THE MEMORY, RULE THE HEART, GUIDE THE FEET. 

READ IT SLOWLY, FREQUENTLY and PRAYERFULLY. 

It is a MINE OF WEALTH, a PARADISE OF GLORY and a RIVER OF PLEASURE. 

It is GIVEN YOU IN LFE, will be OPENED at the JUDGMENT and will be REMEMBERED FOREVER. 

It involves the GREATEST RESPONSIBILITY, REWARDS the GREATEST LABOR and CONDEMNS ALL WHO TRIFLE WITH ITS HOLY CONTENTS."

“THE ANVIL AND THE HAMMER”

"Last eve I passed beside a blacksmith's door and heard the anvil ring the vesper chime; when looking in I saw upon the floor old hammers worn with beating years of time. How many anvils have you had, said I, to wear and batter all these hammers so? Just one, said he, then said with twinkling eye, the anvil wears the hammers out, you know. And so, I thought, the anvil of God's word for ages skeptics' blows have beat upon; yet, though the noise of falling blows was heard, the anvil is unharmed, the hammers gone."
