    Lines of Study for Church Schools

    1. The Bible

    The lips of children will be opened to proclaim the mysteries that have been hidden from the minds of men. The Lord has chosen the foolish things of this world to confound the wise, and the weak things of the world to confound the mighty.PH081 21.1

    The Foundation—The Bible should not be brought into our schools to be sandwiched in between infidelity. The Bible must be made the groundwork and subject-matter of education. It is true that we know much more of the word of the living God than we knew in the past, but there is still much more to be learned. It should be used as the word of the living God and esteemed as first, and last, and best in everything. Then will be seen true spiritual growth. The students will develop healthy, religious characters; because they eat the flesh and drink the blood of the Son of God. But, unless watched and nurtured, the health of the soul decays. Keep in the channel of light. Study the Bible. Those who serve God faithfully will be blessed. He who permits no faithful work to go unrewarded will crown every act of loyalty and integrity with special tokens of his love and approbation— Test., “The Bible in Our Schools.”PH081 21.2

    The word of God is to stand as the highest educating book in our world, and is to be treated with reverential awe. It is our guide book; we shall receive from it the truth. We need to present the Bible as the great lesson book, to place it in the hands of our children and youth, that they may know Christ, whom to know aright is life eternal. It is the book to be studied by those of middle age and those who are aged.—Special Testimonies on Education, 233.PH081 21.3

    What other book presents to students more ennobling Science, more wonderful History?—Special Testimonies to Ministers and Workers 6:19.PH081 22.7

    The searching of all books of Philosophy and Science cannot do for the mind and morals what the Bible can do if studied and practised.—Christian Education, 107.PH081 22.8

    Of all the books that have flooded the world, be they ever so valuable, the Bible is the book of books, and is most deserving of the closest study and attention.—Christian Education, 105.PH081 22.9
