Those who have place the bible in the casket of irrelevance, and lowering down unto the ground of disregard, have come only to discover that the Bible outlive his pallbearers. God’s word is unrelenting, His truth is everlasting, His judgements are indisputable, His correction are timeless. This book is fresher than tomorrows newspaper, it is more definite than the constitution, it is the backbone of science, it is the highest aim of philosophy, it is the inspiration of poetry, it is the word of God. ~ Charlie Dates
