The Bible contains ...
- the mind of God,
- the state of man,
- the way of salvation,
- the doom of sinners,
- the happiness of believers,
- light to direct you,
- food to support you,
- comfort to cheer you.
It is ...
- the traveler's map,
- the pilgrim's staff,
- the pilot's compass,
- the soldier's sword,
- the Christian's charter,
- a mine of wealth,
- a paradise of glory,
- a river of pleasure.
You should ...
- read it to be wise,
- believe it to be safe,
- practice it to be holy.
It should ...
- fill the memory,
- rule the heart,
- guide the feet.
