" I cannot see what some people so much find in the Scriptures," remarked a young man recently to an acquaintance:"to me they are all foolishness."

"I believe them from end to end," replied the other. "They have been, and daily are, a rich blessing to me:it is God who speaks to me in them."

"How do you know," retorted the first, "that they are the word of God ?"

"By yourself now," said the other. "They say that 'the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God:for they are foolishness unto him'; and, by your own confession, that is what they are to you."

Thus do men, and all things about us, bear constant witness to the truth of Scripture, and that in spite of themselves.
