Book for a dying man
Notes
Transcript
Walter Scott, a British novelist and poet and a great Christian, was dying when he said to his secretary, “Bring me the Book.” His secretary looked at the thousands of books in his library and said, “Dr. Scott, which book?” He said, “The Book, the Bible—the only Book for a dying man.” And I would have to add that the Bible is not just the only Book for a dying man, but it’s the only Book for a living man, because it is the Word of life, as well as the hope in death.
