Our Codebook

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:1.

The authoritative source for mankind is the Holy Bible. Its wisdom is both ancient and relevant, historic and prophetic. Above all, it is the Word of God. It is our codebook and its message is the key to life. The Bible has come down to us through the ages. It has passed through so many hands and survived attacks of every kind. Neither barbaric vandalism nor civilized scholarship has touched it. Neither the burning of fire nor the laughter of skepticism has accomplished its annihilation. History recounts the true story of the British and Foreign Bible Society during World War II. When the Germans began bombing the city of Old Warsaw, the wife of the director went to the storeroom and carried some two thousand Bibles to the basement. She was trapped by the bombing and later captured by the Germans and put in a prison camp. She managed to escape, and after the war was over she was able to retrieve the Bibles and distribute them to people in need. Warsaw was flattened, but one wall of the Bible Society remained standing. On it were these words, painted in large letters: “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.” Oh, that people would retrieve their Bibles and open their pages of truth. It’s the indestructible Book written by God Himself.
