O1 diver ent or even incom table mean gs seems to be attac en to it. But ff the Bible la in any some the word of God, we dare not use the phrase lightly. It’; fnr too im- portant. It would be unfair of me to u- aume that you are a student of the Bible. The most I can suppose that you read lt-perhapa occas- ionally, perhaps regularly, There is n difference etween reading the Bible and being a student of Of course, anyone who reads it st all earnestly ponders over what he finds ln it, studies it: mean- ing, compares different passages and tries to understand it in the light of knowledge he has gained from other sources. Countless peo- ple have rend the Bible in this way and have found as a mutter of practical experience that it brings unfailing inspiration and guidance in the conduct of their lives, and that lt satisfies the deepest needs of the human spit-it. Throtttzn it they get into touch with God. If we rcad the Bible, tltereforc, we can get from it. something of su- preme value that no other litera- ture offers and that we perhaps cannot get lrt ‘any other way. The student of the Bible does more than road it; hp reads about it as well. He tries to find out all he can about its- history, how. it has come to us in its present form, how its various hooks were first written, who wrote them and what was in the authors’ minds, what were the circumstances with which they dealt, how far we can be sure we have the original words. I-le asks every question h: can think of that may throw light on this most precious possession and he tries to find the ‘answers. The Bible ls fascinating whether we study it as history, as drama or literature, as law giver, as cause or product of the early Christian Church, and so on, in all its tiar- ious nspects. An incredible amount of Blblt- study of this klnd has been dent: in the lust hundred and fifty years and every source of modern knowledge, including ul- trs-violet rays to test the ancient manuscripts, has been brought to bear on getting the fullest pos- slble knowledge about the Bible and the story it tells. Perhaps you have heard of "Lower Criticism" and “Higher Criticism" 1f the Bible, That's what. this kind of re- search was sometimes called, What- ever the name we give it, the re- sult has been to enhance its‘ value for us many times over. Perhaps my own experience is typical. I was brought up with the idea that the Bible is a holy. sacrossnct book, never to be ques- tioned. The first time I heard someone suggest that not every- thing in it was’ true I was struck with horror and in my boy en 1m- agination I almost expected the blusphemer to be destroyed on the spot. But the criticism penetrated a little, all the same and tnade me read the Bible with more alt-rt- ncss, and, I think, more intelli- gence. I had been encouraged be- fore to read it. I now begun to think about it, In spite of this, however, the Old Testament. weigh- ed very heavily upon mo. It seemed in so many ways to con- tradict the New Testament. 1 was only a reader of the Bible. Its power and somethin: of its mes- sage laid old of mo. I felt it really was declaring the worrl of God, but that word was contest-d to n10 just as if I t-ould hear only n blur of sound from which n sentence here and there stood out lntelligibly. The idea that the whole Bible has full divine authority still gripped rue.’ {tater I became a student of the Bible and began to learn about how it was put together and all‘ the other things which devoted scholars have been finding out about it. The various parts of the Bible fell into their proper places. It was llkp a fog ciesrlnz from my brain so that the confused clamour gave way to a clear voice speaking a language I could at. last understand. A new world opened to me and filled me with exhilara- tion, Now I could hear the word of God through the whole of the Bible and no lon er in n few isolat- ed texts nd stor es here and there. Anti the essuge that. came to me was much fuller and, in a vmv I find hard to describe, more liv- ing. God now came to me through the Bible as a very present Cvod. no longer second hand, but enter- ing direct into my experience. l’ had felt His authority before, but. He seemed to speak from long ago and far away. O I Briefly what happened to mo was this. I sow that titt- Bible came to us not only through human hands but through human minds, so I ceased to look ln it for final. and unaltcrabic pronouncements from God, forever unquestionable. We htive good reason to believe that many of the sayings of Jesus in the New Testament are accur- ately reported. Yet even the words of Jesus come to us throuvn hu- man Intermediaries who rcpnrtt-d what they could remember nf llll sayings and doings. Their mem- ory, like ours; was partly govern- ed by what they could understand, so that they recorded their inter- pretations of Jesus. Human mem- ory snd, to n greater degree, hu- man understanding is limited, and we can see in the Gospels metw instances of the disciples millin- derstandlng Jesus, as well as con- flicting accounts of the some in- cidents or stories. This only means however, that Moses and tho pr ‘ ‘ in the Old Testament and" the evangelist: in the New were not atenographarl taking down dictation front God or Jelul.
