“I recommend the following
for open-minded and intelligent people
who are searching for the true God and true peace of soul.”
Don Richardson, author of Eternity In Their Hearts from his forward to the book The God Who Is Real by Dr. Henry Morris
An excerpt from The God Who Is Real by Dr. Henry Morris –
“Surely THE GOD WHO CREATED
THIS MARVELOUSLY COMPLEX UNIVERSE
with its thinking, feeling, volitional human beings
WOULD NOT DO SO CAPRICIOUSLY
leaving them to flounder forever, ignorant and unfulfilled.
SURELY A GOD LIKE THIS WOULD REVEAL HIMSELF AND HIS WILL
TO THOSE WHO SINCERELY DESIRE TO KNOW HIM,
no matter where or when they enter the human family.
There are many supposedly sacred books in existence,
but THE BIBLE IS UNIQUELY GOD’S WRITTEN WORD.
Of all the so-called scriptures of the world’s religions,
THERE IS ONLY ONE BOOK
WHICH EVEN ATTEMPTS TO EXPOUND CREATION.
All others start with the space/time/matter universe
already in existence in some primeval form.
ONLY THE BIBLE
tells how it was called into existence out of nothing
except for the power of God.
It is the only book which actually claims to be
THE REVELATION OF THE CREATOR.
THE BIBLE VALIDATES THIS CLAIM IN NUMEROUS WAYS.
It is not merely a book of morality or religious philosophy,
as are the other sacred books,
IT IS A BOOK OF HISTORY AND FULFILLED PROPHECY.
Its accurate accounts are
THE MOST DETAILED AND BEST CONFIRMED HISTORIES
of the primeval world and of the key events of
God’s dealings with man.
Its HUNDREDS OF METICULOUSLY FULFILLED PROPHECIES
are a unique testimonial to ITS DIVINE ORIGIN;
and ITS SCIENTIFIC INSIGHTS ARE REMARKABLE.
In fact, its very structure
offers repeated surprises of design to the Bible student.
Although its sixty-six books were written by
at least forty different authors over a period of
at least fifteen centuries, it has
ONE GRAND THEME:
THE GREAT PURPOSE OF GOD
FROM CREATION TO CONSUMATION.
It is fully consistent both in internal content and external contact,
WITH NO PROVABLE ERRORS ANYWHERE.
IF ANY BOOK IN THE WORLD CAN LAY CLAIM
TO BEING THE INSPIRED REVELATION OF THE WORLD’S CREATOR,
THAT BOOK IS THE BIBLE!”
Dr. Henry Morris, The God Who Is Real, (Grand Rapids, Michigan: Baker Book House, 1988)
Dr. Henry Morris is the author of many well-known books on Christian evidences and the scientific accuracy of the Bible. He is president of the Institute for Creation Research and professor of hydrology, having served on faculties of major universities for 28 years including 13 years as chairman of the civil engineering department at the Virginia Polytechnic Institute.
NOTABLE SAYINGS ABOUT THE BIBLE
GEORGE WASHINGTON: “It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible.”
NAPOLEAN: “The Bible is no mere book, but a Living Creature, with a power that conquers all that oppose it.”
FERRAR FENTON: “In the Hebro-Christian Scriptures we have the only key that unlocks the mystery of the universe to man, and the mystery of man to himself.”
LORD TENNYSON: “Bible reading is an education in itself.”
HORACE GREELEY: “It is impossible to enslave mentally or socially a Bible-reading people. The principles of the Bible are the groundwork of human freedom.”
SIR WILLIAM HERSCHEL: “All human discoveries seem to be made only for the purpose of confirming more and more strongly the truths contained in the Sacred Scriptures.”
SIR ISAAC NEWTON: “There are more sure marks of authenticity in the Bible than in any secular history.”
GOETHE: “Let mental culture go on advancing, let the natural sciences progress in ever greater extent and depth, and the human mind widen itself as much as it desires; beyond the elevation and moral culture of Christianity – as it shines forth in the Gospels – it will not go.”
CONSIDERING ALL THAT HAS BEEN STATED ABOVE, NO OPEN-MINDED, INTELLIGENT PERSON CAN IGNORE THE BIBLE, NOR TRUST THE ASSUMPTIONS OF ITS CRITICS WITHOUT FIRSTLY DILIGENTLY STUDYING IT FOR ONESELF.
