"His delight is in the law of the LORD, and on His law he meditates day and night!" Psalm 1:2

What a treasure is the Word of God!

Here we have:
  Light, to dissipate our darkness.
  Truth, to guide us amid the mazes of error.
  Consolations, to gladden us in a world of misery.

The Bible is . . .
  the Revelation of our Father's love;
  the Expression of Jehovah's grace to sinners;
  the Depository of heavenly blessings;
  the Charter of our highest privileges;
  the Religion of true Christians;
  the Glory of our churches;
  the poor man's Friend.

Everything sublime in conception, and tender in expression-is to be found in the sacred Scriptures.

The Eternal Jehovah has there revealed Himself as . . .
  clothed with majesty and honor;
  glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders;
  of purer eyes than to behold iniquity;
  in whose sight the heavens are not clean.

In the sacred Scriptures, He has manifested His glory-as mighty to save, forgiving iniquity transgression and sin.

In that blessed volume, Mercy is seen to arrest the arm of Justice-and all the tenderness of the Father is displayed in the person of the adorable Son.

Love breathes throughout its sacred pages!

"When your Words came, I ate them; they were my joy and my heart's delight!" Jeremiah 15:16
