QUOTES OF THE WEEK

Revelation 22:19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.

You see it is a very risky business, this changing of the Holy Scriptures. - T. DeWitt Talmage

When you hit a bump you spill what you are full of. Will it be faith or doubt? -  James McDonald.

A knowledge of the Bible without a college education is to be preferred to a college education without a knowledge of the Bible. - William Lyon Phelps of Yale University

Many of you will read a novel from beginning to end, and what have you got? A mouth full of froth when you are done. But you can not read the Bible; that solid, lasting, substantial and satisfying food goes uneaten, locked up in the cupboard of neglect; while anything that man writes, a catch of the day, is greedily devoured. - John R. Rice

Put this Bible in the hands of the troubled. You will find that as some of the best berries grow on the sharpest thorns, so some of the sweetest consolations of the Gospel grow on the most stinging affliction. You thought that death had grasped your child. Oh, no! It was only the Heavenly Shepherd taking a lamb out of the cold. Christ bent over as you held the child on your lap, and putting His arms gently around the little one said, "Of such is the kingdom of Heaven." - Rice

Put the Bible in the school. Palsied be the hand that would take the Bible from the college and the school. Educate only a man's head and you make him an infidel. Educate only a man's heart and you make him a fanatic. Educate them both together and you have the noblest work of God. An educated man without moral principle is a ship without a helm, a rushing rail-train without brakes or reversing rod to control the speed. - Rice

Put the Bible in the family. there it lies on the table, an unlimited power. Polygamy and unscriptural divorce are prohibited. Parents are kind and faithful, children polite and obedient. Domestic sorrows lessened by being divided, joys increased by being multiplied. Oh, father, oh, mother, take down that long-neglected Bible, and read it yourselves and let your children read it! - Rice

There are so many who would have you believe that the Bible is an outlandish book, and obsolete. It is fresher and more intense than any book that yesterday came out of the great publishing houses. Make it your guide in life and your pillow in death. - Rice

I live a hand to mouth existence: God's hand to my mouth. - Rice
