Ti e only nhsoluti-ly true history In all the world is found within the pages of tlie I'.il.le. W'herever Srr: lur touches his tory, i-niike the liisirrlan of the worhl. It touches it willi a true hand. The h toriat.s of Ihe world are natural ly imahle to look at l.isttiry from any hut prcju ilircil eye. The wry prnectioii. of their national heroes, a rcrord id in their writ-In-.', leave u with the i-upressiun Ihal lliee were sukT ineii and almost iii.iipal.le of wrong doing. Hut we know that they were men of like passions with us, however unlike us lliry appear on the pages of the historic. Hut when ihe Holy spirit wrote history, though It he ihe history of a I'aviil, He told us alt the truth, uiul the mail Duvid stands he fore us us he ruilly wa. While the l'.il'le contains Ihe only w holly reliable history in all the world. Its object Is. lei merely to record history, but to set before the reader the person of Je.sus Christ. The only true philosophy Is found recorded on the pages of the Rihle. All tlie philosophies of the world, uiiahlo to rise hicher than their source, can have no fuller message thuu ".Man, know thyself." Rut I ioenU!t' of Inher ent inability, man alone run never know himself li. ir roiue tu the knowl edge which tells him whence he niiue or whither he i.i-; lie continues on hi way I il.v a ship w ithout rudder or pilot. Knowing neither ihe port from whence lie suilcjl nor Iho harbor to which he Is hound, and the reason for his being up on Ihe sea of life at all remain an uu tolwd enigma to him. I'.ut the philosophy which comes from the I'.ihlc begins by saying. "Man, know God," and fhrti graciously pro i re. Is tu reveal ti.nl to num. In that ivM-laiiou man may know both the God wlio spriiks ami himself besides. Hut while tlie liihle contains the only true philosophy in the world Iln object is not to give iniiii niee philosophy, but to bring to man the knowledge of God as revealed fully hi the supreme subject of Scripture, Jckus Christ. Again, the only Jrue moral code In the world Is found within the l'.lble. Like the philosophies of the world, the moral codes formed by inn a rise no higher than himself, and have in view mail's illation to inaii only; they do not deal with iiuing relation to God, l'.ut the inol'itl code of the liihle begin wltli man's relation lo God. followed by man's relation to man, The first and i great coinimiiiiluient Is, "Thuu shalt love tlie Lord thy Gml with all ihj , heart." and (he second is like unto It, 1 "'iho u shalt love thy neighbor as thy- ' sell " (.lali.'JJ::i"-o!).
