Heb 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. 
Mr 13:31 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.

Whence but from Heaven, could men unskilled in arts, 
    In several ages born, in several parts, 
    Weave such agreeing truths, or how, or why, 
    Should all conspire to cheat us with a lie? 
    Unasked their pains, ungrateful their advice, 
    Starving their gain, and martyrdom their price. —John Dryden

Mt 24:35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

1Pe 1:23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.

This Book contains the Mind of God, the state of man, 
    the way of salvation, the doom of sinners, and the happiness of believers. 
    Its doctrines are holy, its precepts are binding, 
    its histories are true, and its decisions are immutable.

Read it to be wise, believe it to be safe, and practice it to be holy. 
    It contains light to direct you, food to support you, and comfort to cheer you. 
    It is the traveler’s map, the pilgrim’s staff, the pilot’s compass, 
    the soldier’s sword, and the Christian’s character.

Here paradise is restored, Heaven opened, and the gates of hell disclosed. 
    Christ is its grand object, our good is its design, and the glory of God its end. 
    It should fill the memory, rule the heart, and guide the feet.

Read it slowly, frequently, and prayerfully. 
    It is given you in life and will be opened in the judgment and will be remembered forever. 
    It involves the highest responsibility, will reward the greatest labor, 
    and will condemn all who trifle with its sacred contents. 
    —Unknown Author

Lu 21:33 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. 
Ps 33:11 The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.

Consider: The Word of God is a Book man could not write if he would, and would not write if he could.
