“We believe that the Bible, as written in the original Hebrew and Greek languages, is the very word of the only wise and the only true God, with whom one day is as a thousand years and a thousand years as one day, who saw the end from the beginning, and not only the end, but every stage of the way.We therefore hold it to be nothing short of a positive blasphemy to assert that we have arrived at a stage of our career in which the Bible is not sufficient, or that we are compelled to travel outside of its covers to find ample guidance and instruction for the present moment, and for every moment of our earthly pilgrimage.
The Bible is a perfect chart in which every urgent need of the Christian mariner has been anticipated. Every rock, every sandbank, every shoal, every strand, every island, has been carefully noted down. All the need of the Church of God, its members, and its ministers, has been most fully provided for.
How could it be otherwise if we admit the Bible to be the Word of God? Could the mind of God have devised, or His finger sketched an imperfect chart? Impossible. We must either deny the divinity or admit the sufficiency of The Book.”
~ Charles Henry Mackintosh (1820 – 18906).

You may recall that a few months ago I posted about the Georgia Guide Stones and how that only two weeks before they were struck with lightning, a small group of us were praying in our home at our weekly prayer meeting. A friend from California, Gary Evans, was visiting that night and challenged us to pray against them. Gary and his wife Trish lead the Above Rubies Family Retreat each year, up in the mountains behind San Diego.
