“The Bible is Timeless!” 2 Chronicles 34:14-21

Hilkiah the High Priest discovers and has brought the lost book (scrolls) to King Josiah after the King had called for a cleaning of the Temple…

Prior to the French Revolution, France spent millions to fill their peoples’ minds with atheistic literature. France thought God’s Word was a hindrance to progress…

The illiteracy of the ordinary individual when it comes to the Bible is a fact. The real tragedy is that this illiteracy is NOT confined to “non-church” going people…

Purpose: to better understand why everybody ought to have a vital interest in the Bible

I From the Standpoint of Literature A. If You Love Biographies – Read the Bible B. If You Love Oratory – Read the Bible

“If there is anything of eloquence in me, it is because I learned the Bible at my mother’s knee.”

I From the Standpoint of Literature A. If You Love Biographies – Read the Bible B. If You Love Oratory – Read the Bible C. If You Love Drama – Read the Bible D. If You Love Poetry – Read the Bible

II From the Standpoint of Knowledge A. Knowledge in Modern Literature

Works of the “greatest modern” masters are literally saturated with the Bible. Read Tennyson, Browning, Shakespeare, Ruskin and Carlyle…

II From the Standpoint of Knowledge A. Knowledge in Modern Literature B. Knowledge in Science

The technicalities in health sciences is well known… This book uses the Bible to show how this book from God makes clear it leads to knowledge in the sciences…

II From the Standpoint of Knowledge A. Knowledge in Modern Literature B. Knowledge in Science C. Knowledge in Geography, Philosophy etc.

The Bible is capable of filling any void in our lives…

III From the Standpoint of Need A. It is a Saving Book

Jeremiah 15:16 “When Your words came, I ate them; they were my joy and hearts delight.”

III From the Standpoint of Need A. It is a Saving Book B. It is an Influencing Book C. It is Truth (it is a matter of Sound Doctrine)

John 17:17 “… Your word is truth.”

“Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words shall not pass away.” Matthew 24:35 “Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words shall not pass away.”

1 Timothy 1:10-11 “…and whatever else is contrary to sound doctrine, according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, with which I have been entrusted.”

1 Timothy 4:6 “In pointing out these things to the brethren, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, constantly nourished on the words of the faith and of the sound doctrine which you have been following.”

1 Timothy 4:16 “Pay close attention to yourself and to your doctrine; persevere in these things; for as you do this you will insure salvation both for yourself and for those who hear you.”

2 Timothy 4:2-3 “Preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort, with great patience and instruction. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires.”

Titus 1:9 “… holding fast the faithful word which is in accordance with the teaching that he may be able to both exhort in sound doctrine and to refute those who contradict.”

Titus 2:1 “But as for you, speak the things which are fitting for sound doctrine.”

Titus 2:7-8 “In all things show yourself to be an example of good deeds, with purity of doctrine, dignified, sound in speech…”

Conclusion and Summary One book, however, never has and never will grow old. It speaks to our needs as if it were written for these times alone; yet, it is the oldest of books… We can’t afford to let God’s Word become the lost book. Sound doctrine would be impossible without His Word!
