So that if we shall deal<BR/>falsely with our God in this work we have undertaken, and<BR/>so cause Him to withdraw his present help from us, we<BR/>shall be made a story and a byword throughout the world."<BR/>--John Winthrop, Governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, 1630<BR/><BR/>"It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and<BR/>the Bible." - President George Washington<BR/><BR/>"The Bible is no mere book, but a Living Creature, with a<BR/>power that conquers all that oppose it." - Napoleon<BR/><BR/>"That Book accounts for the supremacy of England."<BR/>- Queen Victoria<BR/><BR/>"If there is anything in my thought or style to commend ,<BR/>the credit is due my parents for instilling in me an early<BR/>love of the Scriptures. If we abide by the principals taught<BR/>in the Bible, our country will go on prospering and to prosper;<BR/>but if we and our posterity neglect its instructions and authority,<BR/>no man can tell how sudden a catastrophe may overwhelm us and<BR/>bury all our glory in profound obscurity." - Daniel Webster (Founding Father)<BR/><BR/>"The Bible is worth all other books which have ever been printed."<BR/>- Patrick Henry (original member of the Continental Congress)<BR/><BR/>"The Bible is the anchor of our liberties." - President U.S. Grant<BR/><BR/>"It is impossible to enslave mentally or socially a Bible-reading people.<BR/>The principals of the Bible are the groundwork of human freedom."<BR/>- Horace Greeley (Editor)<BR/><BR/>"That Book is the rock on which our Republic rests." - President Andrew Jackson<BR/><BR/>"In all my perplexities and distresses, the Bible has never failed to give me<BR/>light and strength." - Gen. Robert E. Lee<BR/><BR/>"Bible reading is an education in itself." - Lord Tennyson (Poet)<BR/><BR/>"So great is my veneration for the Bible that the earlier my children begin<BR/>to read it the more confident will be my hope that they will prove useful<BR/>citizens of their country and respectable members of society. I have for<BR/>many years made it a practice to read through the Bible once every year."<BR/>- President John Quincy Adams<BR/><BR/>"The existence of the Bible, as a Book for the people, is the greatest<BR/>benefit which the human race has ever experienced. Every attempt to<BR/>belittle it is a crime against humanity." - Immanuel Kant (Philosopher)<BR/><BR/>"The New Testament is the very best Book that ever or ever will be<BR/>known in the world." - Charles Dickens (Author)<BR/><BR/>"All human discoveries seem to be made only for the purpose of<BR/>confirming more and more strongly the truths contained in the<BR/>Sacred Scriptures." - Sir William Herschel (Astronomer)<BR/><BR/>"There are more sure marks of authenticity in the Bible than in<BR/>any profane history." - Sir Isaac Newton (Scientist)<BR/><BR/>"Let mental culture go on advancing, let the natural sciences<BR/>progress in even greater extent and depth, and the human<BR/>mind widen itself as much as it desires; beyond the elevation<BR/>and moral culture of Christianity, as it shines forth in the Gospels,<BR/>it will not go." - Goethe (Author)<BR/><BR/>"I have known ninety-five of the world's great men in my time,<BR/>and of these eight-seven were followers of the Bible. The Bible<BR/>is stamped with a Specialty of Origin, and an immeasurable<BR/>distance separates it from all competitors."<BR/>- W.E. Gladstone (Prime Minister)<BR/><BR/>"Whatever merit there is in anything that I have written is simply<BR/>due to the fact that when I was a chile my mother daily read me<BR/>a part of the Bible and daily made me learn a part of it by heart."<BR/>- John Ruskin (art critic and social commentator)<BR/><BR/>"The Bible has been the Magna Charta of the poor and oppressed.<BR/>The human race is not in a position to dispense with it." - Thomas<BR/>Huxley (Author & Scientist)<BR/><BR/>"The whole hope of human progress is suspended on the ever<BR/>growing influence of the Bible." - W.H. Seward (Secretary of State)<BR/><BR/>"America was born a Christian nation. America was born<BR/>to exemplify that devotion to the elements of righteousness,<BR/>which are derived from the revelations of Holy Scriptures.<BR/>Part of the destiny of Americans lies in their daily perusal<BR/>of this great book of revelations. That if they would see<BR/>America free and pure they will make their own spirits<BR/>free and pure by this baptism of the Holy Spirit."<BR/>--President Woodrow Wilson<BR/><BR/>For Christians, the life and death of Jesus are the ultimate<BR/>expressions of love, and the supreme demonstrations of<BR/>God's mercy, faithfulness, and redemption. Since Christ's<BR/>miraculous Resurrection on Easter, more than 2,000 years<BR/>ago, Christians have expressed joy and gratitude for this<BR/>wondrous sacrifice and for God's promise of freedom for<BR/>the oppressed, healing for the brokenhearted, and salvation.<BR/>--President George W. Bush<BR/><BR/>"It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this<BR/>great nation was founded, not by religionists, but by Christians;<BR/>not on religions, but on the gospel of Jesus Christ. For this<BR/>very reason peoples of other faiths have been afforded asylum,<BR/>prosperity, and freedom of worship here."<BR/>--Patrick Henry (original member of the Continental Congress)<BR/><BR/><BR/>===============<BR/><BR/>Q: Why is 'Thought & Humor' so long?<BR/>A: All newspapers & magazines are long!<BR/><BR/>Q: What if I can't read all of it?<BR/>A: Delete it.

But small is the gate and narrow<BR/>the road that leads to life (Heaven, eternal happiness,<BR/>forever with God), and only a few find it. --Matthew 7:13-14<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/>++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++<BR/><BR/>The "E-Mail Newspaper" containing 'Thought & Humor'<BR/>is sent out FREE via e-mail w/o ads.
