2 Timothy 3:16-17
"The Bible is the Book above and beyond all books as a river is beyond a rill in reach, as the sun is beyond a tallow candle in brightness, as a orchard is beyond a twig in fruit bearing, as Niagara is beyond a mud puddle in glory. Of the written Word it is written, "Thy testimonies are wonderful" (Psalm 119: 129). Of the living Word, Jesus, it is written: "His shall be called Wonderful" (Isaiah 9: 6).

More recently, an airplane left the Atlanta airport for a transcontinental flight to Portland, Oregon only to realize that one of the tires had blown out during take-off. The apparent solution to that problem was flying 160 passengers around Atlanta for three hours to use up the fuel before landing back at the same airport. But, such incidents only cause apprehension and trepidation. When an individual chooses to travel by air and then re ...
