""Dr. Saarnivaara's . . . book . . . is a valuable help . . . to remove obstacles set up by unbelieving criticism and to help Christian people to a joyful certainty that 'Still, the Bible is right, ' not only according to its own words but also when it is studied in the light of historical and other scientific facts."" --Aapeli Saarisalo, University of Helsinki Uuras Saarnivaara (1908-1998) was born in Finland, and he received his theological education at the University of Helsinki.
