“Is the lllble Truef”
Savannah. Dec. 19.-Kdlt.tr Morning
News: The above heading was the aul*-
Ject of a recent lecture In our city, by
Mr. J. C. tk-arboro. of Statesboro, reported
In Ihe columns of the Morning New*. It
Is Indeed a live question and worthy of
great consideration.
How many persotis are dally answering
this momentous question. In Ihe affirma
tive? "Thousands!" cornea the quick
answer.
How many persona are dally answering
this momentous question In the negutlve?
lteluotantly conies the answer again,
"Thousands!"
But how many persons.hanging on to the
promise of eternal life, contained In Ihe
lllble, yet remembering these words,
"lb-part from me. ye curaed." Matthew,
xxv, 41, as Ihe subject of many a ser
mon heard In their earlier days, hoar
many person*, on being asked "la the
Bible true?" say: "We do not know. We
are taught to believe It to by true, we
want to believe It. but we do not under
stand It, It seems so full of contradic
tions. II troubles us.”
Now why this diversity of opinion Fan
someone explain? Ik> Ihe ralnlslers of
the Uo*|el ls-lleve Ihe Bible aloodutely
from the beginning to the end" Do they
understand all its teachings, all Its state
ments? Do they believe blindly whar
they do not understand? and can they ex
plain away all seeming contradictions? I>o
they prove dally the trulh of the Gospel?
