The Bible and Civilisation
Deuteronomy 4:7-8
For what nation is there so great, who has God so near to them, as the LORD our God is in all things that we call on him for?…


Wendell Phillips once said: "The answer to the Shaster is India; the answer to Confucianism is China; the answer to the Koran is Turkey; the answer to the Bible is the Christian civilisation of Protestant Europe and America."

(J. S. Gilbert, M. A.)
