"All Scripture is inspired
by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is
wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what
is right." (2 Timothy 3:16 NLT)
Billy Graham long ago made his
peace with the Bible. When he was a young man casting about in the brambles of
academe, he had a crisis of confidence brought on by conflicting biblical
interpretation. "'Oh God! There are many things in this book I do not
understand ... There are many seeming contradictions. There are some areas that
do not seem to correlate with modern science,'" he recounts praying one
evening in Just As I Am. But then, "At last the Holy Spirit freed
me to say it. 'Father, I am going to accept this as Thy Word -- by faith! I'm
going to allow faith to go beyond my intellectual questions and doubts, and I
will believe this to be Your inspired Word.'"
-- David Rubien
