- "This old book contains the mind of God, the state of man, the way
- of salvation, the doom of sinners and the happiness of believers. Its
- histories are true, its doctrines are holy, its precepts are binding
- 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 sailor's compass, the soldier's sword and the
- Christian's charter. Here paradise is restored, heaven is opened and
- the gates of hell are disclosed. Christ is its subject, 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, prayer-
- fully. It is a mine of wealth, a paradise of glory and a river of
- pleasure. It is given you in life, will be opened at the judge- ment
- and will be remembered forever. It involves the highest responsibility,
- rewards the greatest labor and condemns all who trifle with its holy
- contents."
