The contemporary questions of the Christian faith and their clarifications as highlighted in this book are all founded and centered on the bible which is our bedrock. The bible contains the mind of God, the state of man, the way of salvation, the doom of sinners, and the happiness of believers. Its doctrines are holy, its precepts are binding, its histories are true and its decisions are immutable.
Read it to be wise, believe it to be safe and practice it to be holy. It contains lights to direct you, food to support you, and comfort to cheer you. It is the traveler’s map, the pilgrim’s staff, the pilot’s compass, the soldier’s sword and the Christians chatter. Herein is paradise restored, heaven opened, and the gates of hell is disclosed.
Christ is its grand subject, our good design and the glory of God, its end. It should fill the memory, rule the heart and guide our feet. Read it slowly, frequently and prayerfully. It is a mine of wealth, a paradise of glory and a river of pleasure. It is given to you in life so that there will be an open haven for all your difficulties and will condemn all who trifle with its sacred contents as enshrined in this book.
It is my earnest desire that in regards to the contemporary questions that have given the children of God concern in the Christian faith, which is also our responsibility to seek the answers, your greatest labor will be rewarded with wisdom, knowledge and understanding.
