1. "100 years from my day there will not be a Bible in the earth except one that is looked upon by an antiquarian curiosity seeker."
"It took 12 men to start Christianity; one will destroy it."
Voltaire (1776)

(100 years later, Voltaires home was used to store Bibles and distribute them all over Europe)


2. "In 15 years I will have this book in the morgue."
Robert Ingersoll

(15 years later, he was in the morgue. A pastor purchased Ingersoll's desk and spent his life writing sermons on it.)

... men attack the book to invalidate it ...

for if it be true , some thing else is required of them ...

... to love and assist their fellow man
... to put aside bigotry and pettiness
... to speak , preach , teach , and do things better and differently
.... to change , apologize, and repent of much of their lives prior to understanding the truth of the Holy Writ revaled ..

The Anvil - God's Word

Last eve I passed beside a blacksmith's door,
And heart the anvil ring the vesper chime;
Then, looking in, I saw upon the floor
Old hammers, worn with beating years of time.

How many anvils have you had," said I,
"To wear and batter all these hammers so?"
"Just one," said he, and then, with twinkling eye,
"The anvil wears the hammers out, you know."

And so, thought I, the anvil of God's Word,
For ages skeptic blows have beat upon;
Yet, though the noise of falling blows was heard,
The anvil is unharmed--the hammers gone.
