Ps. 138:2b You have exalted above all things Your name and Your word.
Forever,
O LORD, your word is firmly fixed in the heavens.
Psalm 119:89
Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the
prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you,
Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from
the law, till all be fulfilled. (Matthew 5:17-18, KJV)
Find Jesus where you may, He is the
antagonist of those who would lessen the authority of Holy Scripture. “It is
written” is His weapon against Satan, His argument against wicked men. The
learned of this hour scoff at the Book and accuse of Bibliolatry those of us
who reverence the Divine Word; but in this they derive no assistance from
the teaching or example of Jesus. —Spurgeon
Not a word derogatory of Scripture ever fell
from the lips of Jesus Christ; but evermore He manifested the most reverent
regard for every jot and tittle of the inspired Volume. Since our Savior, not only before His
death, but after it, took care to commend the Scriptures to us, let us avoid
with all our hearts all teaching in which Holy Scripture is put into the
background. --Spurgeon
