“We believe that the Bible is not an account of human efforts to find God, but rather an account of God’s effort to reveal Himself to humanity. It is God’s own record of His dealings with people in His unfolding revelation of Himself to the human race. The Bible is the revealed will of the Creator of all of humanity, given to His creatures by the Creator Himself, for instruction and guidance along life’s paths.” (Page 11)
“It should be noted that it was the finding of the Book of the Law that brought about Josiah’s great reformation (2 Kings 22). It was Martin Luther’s finding of a Bible that led to the Reformation and brought religious liberty to our modern world. The weakness of many present-day churches is their neglect of the very Bible they profess to follow—the great need of today’s pulpit is simple expository preaching.” (Page 300)
“What virtue is there in obeying God if in our nature there is no inclination to do otherwise? But if, of our own choice, and against the steady urge of our nature, we obey God, we find our true humanity.” (Page 92)
“The genealogy in 4:17–22 may actually be the main reason why the book of Ruth was written. It shows that Ruth and Boaz had a son, Obed, whose son was Jesse, whose son was David.” (Page 212)
“Thus the book, in a way, is humanity’s cry for a Savior.” (Page 356)
