This book, first of all, examines what the Bible itself says about revelation and about its own inspiration; then, while enunciating the testimony given to it by Christ and by the church throughout the centuries, it sums up theories proposed regarding it; and, finally, brings out the supernatural characteristics which attest to the divine origin of Scripture and which establish its sovereign authority.

From Chapter 1: Man on earth is placed in a paradoxical situation. Endowed with intelligence and logic, he seems intended to know the reason for his existence and the meaning of it, as well as the origin of the universe and the person of his Creator. Actually, however, he finds himself surrounded by mysteries. Left to his own devices, he is incapable of answering the questions which press in on him so closely: From whence has he come? Why is he the victim of suffering and death? Will he ever find happiness and peace? What will occur after death: annihilation, judgment, or eternal life? And above all towers this question: Does God exist? Then, if He does, why is He so far from us; and how can we manage to have an encounter with Him?
