the lnnt of the series of excjlent
Mi-rmotiH il"llvrt;l by Vr. JUty 1'ulmt:
ilurliiK dim Mny In Atrlu. It was
truly an liiti-lltt-tual ri tic spiritual
fcuHl. Iir Palmer's theme wit. "The
lillile," mill whs drawn from Mutt
xxlv:3S: "Heaven urid earth shall
piiHH away, but my word Khali not
pan away." Iir. l'almer treated the
nutiji-i t uruli.T three division:
First. He Hioke of tho bllde Itself.
H":tiii'l. Of the evidence, of ItH In
spiration.
Third. Of Its ln'lestrutll)lllty.
L'lnler the llrnt dlvlnlon the seitker
reheiirtted with great power and well
choHcii words the value of the bible
n.H a hixtory, an a book of ethics anil
us n book of the sublimest works of
literature. It was written by Inspired
men from various wulk of life, such
as fishermen, kltiK", priests, lawKlv
ers, prophets, tioets, historians and
theologians. He said ft was invnlu
uble us a text book, and that no stu
dent of history could be complete In
hln study without n thorough view of
the bible, because It was the cradle of
h. story. Dr. Palmer suld that the
bible had Inspired the world's greatest
artist., and furnished theme, for their
paintings and stntnes, instancing
Ilaplmel and Michael Angelo, The
bible also had Inspired many of the
world's greatest writers and was quo
ted or Incorporated In much of the
best literature. Thl. was Illustrated
hy the many gems taken from the
bible by Hhukespeare, ' the world'
greatest dramatist, also by the death
bed scene of Sir Walter Scott, the
world's greatest historical novelist and
one of the world', great poet., who
said when dying: "There Is but one
book and that Is the bible."
The Bibl. Needed in School..
Pr. Palmer .aid that the bible was
needed In nil our public schools and
colleges an n text book In history,
literature and ethics, and that we
ought not to ollow the devil or any
body else to keep It out of our schools.
He would not teach sectarianism in
the public schools, but the morals of
the bible were needed as well ns Its
historical value and literary worth.
Under the second division Dr. Pal
mer compared the evidence, of the
Inspiration of the bible with the evi
dence, of the inspiration of the Koran,
the Veda, and other great religions.
These all claimed to have come di
rectly from the greatest God of the
universe while the bible claimed that
it was written by' men inspired by
Ood. The mere claim of It. divine
origin, which it held in common with
other sacred books, wa. not sufficient
to satisfy the skeptical inquirer.
A Challenge Test.
The flnnl test to which he challenged
nW other religions to meet Christianity j
was "the power which the blhle had to
make bad men good." In this chal
Icnjte, he Included Monnunlsm, Confuc
ianism, MohenmiedanlHin and all oth
ers. He clte-1 the condition of Mor
mons and their practices a. evidence
of their failure to meet this 'est,
Dr. Paltn'r cl ilmed that the heathen
darkness of the lands where the Koran
and the Wdns were taught and obeyed
Is sufficient proof of the falsity of
their claim to divine authorship. .
Under the third division Dr. Pulmer
showed the Indestructibility of the
bible by the fulfillment of the prophe
cies concerning Egypt. That at one
time It was the center of the world In
power and learning, but now inslgnifl
cant except for it. ruins. The bible
foretold that It would be one of the
least of the nations of the earth
Through thousands of year, the bible
had stood firm, although kingdoms
had arisen and decayed.
To Outlast Gibraltar.
The 'speaker .aid the time might
come when even Gibraltar might be
washed away by the sea. but even
then God's word would stand more
firm than ever.
Dr. Palmer closed with two touch
ing scenes from his own life, one
when a little boy ho stood at his
mother's deathbed. She died at the
age of 22. ghe kissed her husband and
nix chlMren goodbye and then sang a
hymn and piuised Into glory, by
thin h'f know that th bible stand, firm
even In death and defies It. terrors,
Again, many years after he and his
brothers, two beside himself being
minister, of the gospel, with his sis
ters, gathered at their father', death
bed, Although i2 yeuT of age, his
head white as the snow, he died with
the bible as his guide to glory and the
triumph of Christ's salvation as his
crown of life.
