They were men of ability ami of ’varying occti* pations who were “in breathed’’ by God to write They were men with divine leadership who wrote with divine sanction and author ity As the divine Word of God, the Bible has authority which no other writing can claim Through the centuries, Christian people have accept ed the Bible as the word and revelation of God, final and sufficient for all the needs of men in spiritual matters. It seems nothing less than ; miraculous when one consi- ! ders the fact thai. the writ ings of some forty men were kept through a period of 1500 years of changing fortunes. Remarkable indeed is the fact that these 66 books, writ ten by 40 or more authors over a period of 1500 years ; constitute one great Book in which there arc no contradic tions.
