Harmony of the Bible

By Dr. J. P. Thompson

As when you see wheels, shafts, pins, bands, lying apart, each finished in itself, yet each adapted to others, you know that some machine is contemplated by the founder, tho you may not see how to put it together; but when you see the machine put together and in action, you perceive new fitness in every part, and the grand combination of all for one end; so in the several books of the Bible you discover an adaptation to the same end, but in the completed volume you behold the grand harmony of all the books in one object—the restoration of a sinful race to its Paradise in God! The mind that conceived such a plan, and slowly unfolding it, part by part, through the ages, brought it together finished in this book, must be divine. —Dr. J. P. Thompson.
