Rule Book for Civilization
Like thousands of other Ameri
cans in 1941 I bought a new car.
I got an .Oldsmobile. I am still us
ing the car and getting good service
out of It, and I believe I know why.
A book of instructions came with
it, and because I believed the peo
ple who made the car could tell
me a great deal about how to run
it, I studied that book carefully.
I got excellent service from the
automobile throughout the entire
war, and am still using it.
I believe that happened because
I followed the instructions of .those
who made the Oldsmobile. Doing
that, I could expect to get good
service. The whole idea seemed
like good logic to me. May I sub
mit an application for this home
made parable? If this principle
works with automobiles, it should
have some merit when applied to
things larger and more important.
Will you follow me in this applica
tion? Handbook for Mortals
The Bible is the book oi instruc
tions from the Creator' who made,
the world and the fullness thereof.
It is the book containing the laws,
rules, and advice that we mortals
should read and study in order that
we may know how to proceed. It
is the instruction book on how to
operate that part of the Creator's
handiwork with which we are in
volved. Careful study of this instruc
tion book will bring great dividends.
I am glad to live in a land where
a National Bible Week finds enthusi
astic support. This year October 20
to 28 has been so-tlesignated. Did
you know that twelve of the thir
teen little colonies planted along
the ' Atlantic seaboard were found
ed by people who came to Amer
ica seeking religious freedom?
Their lives were guided, and domi
nated by the Bible. But perhaps even
they did not visualize the kind of
America to come the America to
coma because of what they did.
, Bill of Freedoms
Later, when our Constitution was
framed, the men who wrote it were
men who believed the Bible and
who looked upon it. as God's "in
struction book." These men desired
to maintain for their descendants,
and for posterity, . the kind of
individual freedom which they be
lieved the Creator had decreed for
every individual. To them, that was
one of the instruction rules out of
the book.
That Constitution, when adopted
and amended in 1789, parried with
it the greatest bill of Individual
freedoms that any nation has evei
enjoyed. Under these freedoms,
America developed the greatest
measure of well-being and prosper
ity that any segment of mankind
has ever developed on this earth.
It may be said, without any doubt,
that the freedoms and liberties
which brought our prosperity, grew
directly from the religious founda
tion laid by our forefathers.
I am glad to feel that we Ameri
cans are so dedicated to the basic
concepts of law and practice as
they are found in the Bible. If we
will look to God's instruction book
for guidance at all times in the
future, making it our source book for
living, then our future is secure.
Only in that way -may America, pre
serve liberty and freedom and
ven civilization, through the com
ing decades and centuries.
