Safe Through the Blood of Jesus

Preface
HAD been religiously inclined from my
earliest years. When quite little, I was
wont to say my prayers many times over;
for I had heard it said that everything done
on earth was written down in Heaven, and I
wished to have as much as possible recorded
there in my favour. When about ten years
of age, I heard that there were some who did
not believe that the Bible was the Word of
God; and that led me to surmise that it was
not sufficiently clear that it was from God;
for if He had given a revelation of His mind to
man, it must have come in such a form that it
would have been impossible for any person to
disbelieve in it. I pictured to myself that if
God chose to do it, He could put up in great
letters along the Heavens, “I am the Lord,”
and everybody would see it and believe; and
if the Bible were from Him, its revelation
would be so unmistakably clear, that it would
be impossible to doubt its Divine origin.
But this was not a settled conviction; and my
incipient scepticism was soon dissipated.
