This volume, The Bible from Heaven: A Summary of Plain Arguments for the Bible and Christianity, first published in 1878 by Dudley Canright, is a series of discussions regarding vital tenets of the Bible, written in simple and accessible language so that anyone who reads it can understand. Its thirty chapters set forth valuable arguments in behalf of Bible truth. Topics include evidence of an almighty Creator, an infinite God, the universal desire to worship, God's care for His creations, man's need for God, comparison of Biblical religion with false religions, and many more.

James White said, "This valuable work is needed everywhere, and not being denominational, can be, and will be, widely circulated. ... We bespeak for it the influence of all who love our old-fashioned, blessed Bible."
