The “why” of life is found nowhere else. Other books tell us many truths about life, yet its depths and meaning find expression and answer in only one Book. It interprets life, and he who reads the interpretation knows that it is true because it is the story of himself, and in himself is the witness of its truth. Men have sought everywhere the secret of life and the things that pertain thereto, but everywhere, save in the Bible, they find only darkness and obscurity and uncertainty. The Bible, however, speaks in no uncertain terms. It speaks the language of Him who knows, and if we reject its voice we are left in a tangled maze out of which we cannot find our way.
The Bible outlives all its critics and is triumphant when they are forgotten; it has many times been pronounced dead, but still it lives; it has been called “exploded,” but its power is not dissipated; it has seen all antagonistic theories of the past, one by one, destroyed and rejected. But it still stands, in spite of the critic, in spite of its enemies, and those who anchor their faith upon it need not fear what voice is raised against it. Neither need they fear what weapons are brought to bear upon it, for it is truth, and those who fight against it fight against God and are themselves ruined.
It is adapted to all people of every race and clime, to the high and the low, the rich and the poor, the learned and the ignorant. Of no other book can this be said. It is the Book of books, the Book of God. In it God speaks, and my inmost heart knows that it is the voice of my Beloved and leaps for joy.
