“I know men and I tell you that Jesus Christ is no mere man. Between Him and every other person in the world there is no possible term of comparison. Alexander, Caesar, Charlemagne, and I have founded empires. But on what did we rest the creations of our genius? Upon force. Jesus Christ founded His empire upon love; and at this hour millions of men would die for Him.”
PARIS REIDHEAD said,
JOSEPHUS said,
“About this time there lived Jesus, a wise man, if indeed one ought to call him a man...He was the Christ. When Pilate, upon hearing him accused by men of the highest standing among us, had condemned him to be crucified, those who had in the first place come to love him did not give up their affection for him. On the third day he appeared to them restored to life, for the prophets of God had prophesied these and countless other marvelous things about him.”
ABRAHAM LINCOLN said,
“The Bible is endorsed by the ages. Our civilization is built upon its words. In no other Book is there such a collection of inspired wisdom, reality, and hope.”
SIR ISAAC NEWTON said,
“We account the Scriptures of God to be the most sublime philosophy. I find more sure marks of authenticity in the Bible than in any profane history whatsoever.”
“Every man must do two things alone; he must do his own believing, and he must do his own dying.”
PARIS REIDHEAD said,
“When 100 years ago earnest scholars decreed that the Law had no relationship to the preaching of the gospel, they deprived the Holy Spirit in the area where their influence prevailed of the only instrument with which He had ever armed Himself to prepare sinners for grace.”

ABRAHAM LINCOLN said,
“I believe the Bible is the best gift God has given to man... But for this Book, we could not know right from wrong...Take allyou can of this Book upon reason, and the balance on faith,and you will live and die a happier man.”
