The Bible is the only credible guide either as to the real relationship between man and the earth and the great Creator of both or concerning the purpose of the creation of both.

The Bible shows the clear statement of God's purposes concerning the earth, and man once made its prince. Its opening chapters show that it was intended for man's instruction.

The book of Revelation is written largely in symbols.

The development of the telescope, together with increased knowledge of things, brought men to see that the earth is not what man had once thought it to be.

The earth incites the wonder and admiration of man even though he is imperfect and his understanding greatly limited.

The earth is yet the place of the domicile of man and all the offspring of the first man.

The inspired Scriptures make the clear distinction between false and true riches and make plain the reason why happiness is gained and fully enjoyed only by those who find true riches.
