The Bible Our Only Guide

THERE is only one place to which we can go for a satisfactory solution of the problem which faces us. The mystery of our being—whence we came, and whither we are bound—the life beyond the grave—the possibilities of the human soul—light upon these subjects can come to us only through the Holy Scriptures. The uncertainty of human philosophy makes it unsafe as a guide to those seeking a knowledge of eternal things. We must have an authoritative revelation concerning the things which are unseen, or we are left to wander in the mazes of doubt and questioning. To destroy confidence in the reliability of the Bible is to send us adrift without chart or compass. To reject the revelation made in the Bible is to refuse the light which shines in a dark place. “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable.”
