Topic(s): Blessings, Bible Study

This is found at the beginning of Halley’s Bible Handbook, written by Henry H Halley in 1962. He continues:

Everybody ought to love the Bible. Everybody ought to read the Bible. Everybody. It is God’s Word. It holds the solution of life. It tells about the best friend mankind ever had, the Noblest, Kindest, Truest Man that ever trod this earth.

It is the most beautiful story ever told. It is the best guide to human conduct ever known. It gives a meaning, and a glow, and a joy, and a victory, and a destiny, and a glory, to life elsewhere unknown. There is nothing in history, or in literature, that in any wise compares with the simple annals of the Man of Galilee, who spent His days and nights ministering to the suffering, teaching human kindness, dying for human sin, rising to life that shall never end, and promising eternal security and eternal happiness to all who will come to Him.

Most people, in their serious moods, must have some wonderment in their minds as to how things are going to stack up when the end comes. Laugh it off, toss it aside, as we may, that day will come. And then what? Well, it is the Bible that has the answer. And an unmistakable answer it is. There is a God. There is a Heaven. There is a Hell. There is a Savior. There will be a Day of Judgment. Happy is the man, who, in the days of his flesh, makes his peace with the Christ of the Bible, and gets himself ready for the final take-off.
