Bible Study Day

By Editor

Bible Study Day.—In 1900, William Rainey Harper and John Henry Barrows sent out an appeal to ministers to preach "one sermon a year in the early autumn devoted to setting forth the claims of the Bible upon the time and energies of the Christian." Ministers are asked to pledge to observe such a day. We are glad that men are pleading for even one day; but is it not strange that such a plea needs to be made? Every Christian minister, every week, whether that is his sermon topic or not, ought to manifest, in no uncertain way, his position regarding "the claims of the Bible." Only one Sunday out of fifty-two for the Bible, the word of God!
