This is to teach us that the Bible is so plain and simple that little children can feed on it as they do on milk. Some people declare that the Bible is too profound for children, and that they should seek and read some other simpler book on religion first. But where is the child that can understand human words that does not grasp the stories of many of the Bible records? Noah and the Ark; Daniel in the Lions' Den; The Hebrew Children in the Furnace; the story of the Finding of Moses; Joseph and His Brethren, and the parables and the miracles of Jesus, etc. We are all babes in Christ when first converted, and are exhorted to drink the pure milk of the pure word of God. 5. Bread. (Deuteronomy 8:3; Isaiah 55:10.) Here secure a few small cakes, and explain the bread of the Bible was not like our loaf of bread, but like our cakes. Place them on a plate and put them in line with the other objects. Here we are taught the Bible is food for the soul. Without it we will all perish. "I have esteemed thy word more than my necessary food" is the confession of the heart that finds the Bible the real bread for the soul. The prophet said, "Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? harken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness." This is free bread; it is without money and without price. Come to the gospel Free Market and live. 6. Honey. (Psalm 119:10.) Place now in line with the other symbols a bottle of honey. This teaches the truth that the word of God is not only to give us our plain, necessary food, but to provide for us God's sweets. An invitation to help ourselves to heaven's luxuries. The Bible is so full of such delights that David cried out, "How sweet are thy words unto my taste! Yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth" (Ps. 119:103). 7. Fire. (Jeremiah 20:9; 23:29.) Pour out into a metal plate a small quantity of alcohol and light it with a match. It will burn for a few minutes, at least long enough to bring home the lesson. Fire breaks out and spreads forth, so if we are saved and have the Bible in our hearts, it will break forth into acts, and the world will behold it. And with burning words on our lips we will speak it forth; messages for the dying world to hear. 8. Hammer. (Jeremiah 23:29.) Secure a large mallet if possible, for this is the form of a Bible hammer; if not possible use an ordinary one. Place this in line with the other objects. Some people's hearts are harder than stone. It takes a strong effort to break their hearts of iron. This is often discouraging work. The hammer does not always work at the first blow. It hits again and again, and if we who swing the hammer of the word are faithful to the end the rock heart will at last break asunder; God's word never fails. 9. Sword. (Ephesians 6:17.)
