The empire of Caesar is gone; the legions of Rome are moldering in the dust; the avalanches that Napoleon hurled upon Europe have melted away: the pride of the Pharaohs is fallen; the Pyramids they raised to be their tombs, are sinking every day in the desert sands; Tyre is a rock for bleaching fishermens nets; Sidon has scarcely left a wreck behind; but the word of God still survives.<\/p>\n
All things that threatened to extinguish it have only aided it; and it proves every day how transient is the noblest monument that man can build, how enduring is the least word that God has spoken.<\/p>\n
Tradition has dug for it a grave, intolerance has lighted for it many a fagot; many a Judas has betrayed it with a kiss; many a Peter has denied it with an oath; many a Demas has forsaken it, but the word of God still endures (1 Peter 1:25; cf. Isaiah 40:8).<\/p>\n
