The Bible, its Laws and Commandments for an easy and dangerous world, can be considered remain ignorant, Christ said: "TO HIM THAT HATH SHALL BE GIVEN, BUT FROM HIM THAT HATH NOT SHALL BE TAKEN AWAY AT WHICH WHICH SEEMETH TO HAVE" FAIL (279).
Luther said: "THAT THE BIBLE IS GOD'S WORD AND BOOK. I PROVE THUS: ALL THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN, AND ARE, IN THE WORLD, AND THE MANNER OF THEIR USE ON THE CREATION, EVEN AS GOD MADE AND SHAPED THE WORLD, SO DOES IT STAND TO THIS DAY; INFINITE POTENTATES HAVE RAGGED AGAINST THIS BOOK AND SOUGHT TO DESTROY AND UPROOT IT — KING JOHN, OF SALAMADI; AND ALEXANDRIA BELVON, THE ONACHERS OF PRECIOE OF GREECE AND OF ROME, THE EMPERORS JULIUS AND AUGUSTUS: BUT THEN NOTHING PREVALED; THEY ARE GONE AND VANISHED, WHILE THE BOOK REMAINS, AND WILL REMAIN FOREVER AND EVER, PERFECT AND ENTIRE; AND THE GRIFFINS, WHO HELPED IT — WHOS HAS THUS PROTECTED IT AGAINST SUCH MIGHTY FORCES! NO ONE, SURELY, BUT GOD
HIMSELF, WHO IS MASTER OF ALL THINGS, AND 'TIS NO SMALL MIRACLE HOW GOD HAS SO LONG PRESERVED AND PROTECTED THIS BOOK; FOR THE DEVIL AND THE WORLD ARE SORE FOES TO IT. I BEVEL THAT THE DEVIL HAS DESTROYED MY MOST BOOKS OF
