You ask me what I think of Christ? He is the Chiefest among ten thousand, and altogether lovely—my Lord, my Saviour, and my God.
What do I think of the Bible? It is the infallible Word of God, a light erected all along the shores of time to warn against the rocks and breakers, and to show the only way to the harbor of eternal rest.2266
