Wisdom concerning the Bible …

All these quotes were taken from Zig Ziglar’s daily hope entitled “Staying Up, Up, Up in a down, down world” 

 The Bible … 

It is God’s highway to Paradise.

It is the light on the pathway in the darkest night.

It leads business men to integrity and uprightness.

It is the great consoler in bereavement.

It awakens men and women opiated by sin.

It answers every great question of the soul.

It solves every great problem of life.

On the cover of your Bible and my Bible appear the words, “Holy Bible”.  Do you know why the Bible is called holy?  Why should it be called holy when so much lust and hate and greed and war are found in it?  I can tell you why.  It is because the Bible tells the truth.  It tells the truth about God, about man, and about the devil.  The Bible teaches that we exchange the truth of God for the devil’s lie.  About sex, for example, and drugs and alcohol and religious hypocrisy.  Jesus Christ is the ultimate truth.  Furthermore, He told the truth.  Jesus said that He was the Truth, and the Truth would make us free.

                                               — Billy Graham

The Word of God, well understood and religiously obeyed, is the shortest route to spiritual perfection.  And we must not select a few favorite passages to the exclusion of others.  Nothing less than a whole Bible can make a whole Christian.

                                                           — A.W. Tozer

It is a fortress often attacked but never failing.  Its wisdom is commanding and its logic convincing.  Salvation is its watchword.  Eternal life its goal.  It punctures all pretense.  It is forward-looking, outward-looking, and upward-looking.  It outlives, outlifts, outloves, outreaches, outranks, outruns all other books.  Trust it, love it, obey it, and Eternal Life is yours.
