CHRISTIANITY is the religion of a Book. Without this Book, Christianity cannot be perpetuated. Wherever this Book has not gone there is no evidence of anything Christian. Salvation is through faith in Jesus Christ, and people cannot believe in Him of whom they have not heard (Rom. 10:14). And we are SHUT UP TO THIS BOOK for news about Jesus Christ. This Book is the Bible, and in its original, is God's word to us today. Efface the teachings of the Bible from human thought and Christianity passes in to oblivion. THE BIBLE IS AN INFALLIBLE BOOK, sufficient and authoritative in all matters of religious faith and practice (II Tim. 3:16, 17).
