“ This book contains the mind of God; the
state of man; the way of salvation; the
doom of sinners; and the happiness of
believers. Its doctrines are holy, its
precepts are binding; its stories are true ;
and its decisions are immutable. Read it to
be wise; believe it to 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 staff;
the pilot’s compass; the soldier’s sword;
and the Christian’s charter. Here, paradise
is restored; heaven opened; and the gates
of hell disclosed. Christ is its grand object;
our good is 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, a
river of pleasure. It is given you in life, will
be opened at the judgment, and
remembered forever. It involves the
highest responsibility, will reward the
laborer and condemns all who trifle with
its contents.”
