Six Things God Does Not Know
Rex Yancey
Psalm 139:1-6

I will bring the Pope out on that balcony and get him to wave at you."
So Joe goes inside and in a few minutes he comes out on the balcony with a man with a beanie cap on and a robe. His friend is thinking to himself, Joe may be pulling my leg. That may not be the Pope at all.
