Bible 10 Not . Textbook

The fact Of mind was as glorious q
fact then as now, but it's mighty mys-
teries are not unfolded in the Bible.
Philosophy for thousands Of years has
been endeavoring to ascertain the mex
us linking mind and body. 1t has been
asking whether the mind is located in
the brain alone. or in the brain and
the great nerve centers, or in the whole
nervous system.
There is the mystery Of perception:
whether we really see the external
world or only an image of it: how the
image originates, whether 1t Is material
or immaterial; how it is formed on
the eye; how impressed on the brain;
how 1t awakens thought: how 1t be-
comes transformed into an act.
The Bible answers none Of these
questions. 1t is not a textbook Of men,
tai philosophy. 1t does not supplant
Plato. Aristotle, Describes. Berkeley,
Locke, Reid, Stewart or Hamilton. 1t
states all the facts of these subjects in
everyday language-the language of
the home, the market and the street.
The Bible is not a complete his
torical treatise. The Old Testament is
the Oldest written record we have. Its
statements are marvelously supple
mented in the sunburnt bricks Of As
syria and the monuments and papyrus
Of Egypt. But thought written in the
most eventful periods of the world s

time and then fall withered like the

"A Book Filled With God"
"a strong inferential argument may
be here made that if man alone had
written this Book he would not have
overlooked what to man concerned
with the earth alone. would have been
the most important Of all matters.
How the pages of Hume or Macaulay
charm US by their minuteness of de-
