Take up the book of Genesis, and you will find eight beginnings; or, in
other words, you pick up the key of several books. The gospel was
written that man might believe on Jesus Christ, and every chapter speaks
of Him. Now, take the book of Genesis; it says it is the book of
beginnings. That is the key; then the book of Exodus--it is the book of
redemption; that is the key word of the whole. Take up the book of
Leviticus, and we find that it is the book of sacrifices. And so on
through all the different books; you will find each one with a key.
Another thing: We must study it unbiased. A great many people believe
certain things. They believe in certain creeds and doctrines, and they
run through the book to get Scripture in accordance with them. If a man
is a Calvinistic man he wants to find something in accordance with his
doctrine. But if we go to seek truth the Spirit of God will come. Don't
seek it in the blue light of Presbyterianism, in the red light of
Methodism; or in the light of Episcopalianism, but study it in the light
of Calvary.
Note what Jesus Says.
Some people say to me, "Moody, you don't believe in the flood. All the
scientific men tell us it is absurd." Let them tell us. Jesus tells us
of it, and I would rather take the word of Jesus than that of any other
one.
