Men write many good books, but they pass away. Not so many even
survive the generation that produced them. Their readers become fewer and
fewer. God gave us a book that will never pass away. "Heaven and earth shall
pass away, but my words shall not pass away." (Matt. 24:35.) "But the word
of the Lord endureth for ever." (1 Pet. 1:25.) When this old world is wrapped
in flames, the Bible will survive. All other things are passing away. Death and
decay are written upon everything. Death is on our track. It will soon catch up
with us. The word of God will not die. "For the word of God is quick, and
powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing
asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of
the thoughts and intents of the heart." (Heb. 4:12.) A book that will endure
forever certainly should demand our most careful study.
