an infidel \sill' be a man- wl:o does not
believe his own senses. and the volumes
now critical and denunciatory of the
Bible, if not, entirely devastated by the
book xvorms, will be taken down from
the shelf as curiosities of ignorance or
idiocy. :Why is it that the Bible, made
up of the writings of at least thirty-nine
authors, has kept together for a long
line, of Centuries, when the natural ten-
dency would have been to fly apart like
loose sheets of paper when a gust of
wind blows 'upon them? It is because
God stuck them together and keeps
theut together. But for that Joshua
Nvolthl !MVO wandered in one direction,
and Paul into another, -and Ezekiel into
a nother, and Luke into anot her, and
Habbakuk into another, and the thirty-
nine authors into thirty-nine directions.
Put the writings of • Shakespeare
and Tennyson and, Longfellow or
any part of them; together; h9w long
would flteyl stay togethet? No book
bindery could keep them together. . But
the cannon of Scripture is loaded now
with the same ammunition (vith NchiCh
prophet and apostle loaded it. Tile book'
gives me ponfidence by the supernatural
edte sion 'of writing- to writing. Even
the stoutest ship sometimes shifts' its
cargo, and that is what made our peril
the greater in the ship Greece of the
Nmtional Line when the cycenee struck us
off the coast of Newfoundland, and the::
carg of iron bad shifted as the ship
sw•aug from 'larboard to starboard and
from st trboard to larboard. But thanks
be to tiod, this old Bible ship, though it
has been in thousands of years of tempest,
has kept its cargo of gold and precious
stones compact and sure, and in alt the
centuries nothing about it has shifted.
13y that tremendous fact my faith is re-
inforced. The discussion is broad as to
who wrote those hooks of the Bible call-
ed the Pentateuch. whether Moses .or
Hilkiith or Ezra or Samtlel or Jeremiah
or another group of ancients. None of
them wrote it. God wrote . the
Pentateuch, and in this day of steno-
graphy and typewriting- that ought not
to he a difficultthhig to understand.
