No book is like the Bible

There really is no other book in existence like the Bible.

It is amazing how it can still be timeless and true after at least 2,000 years.

When you realize how it was written, where it was written, by whom it was written and the span of time in which it was written it becomes even more incredible.

The most remarkable aspect of it is that it all says the same thing: God loves us and has a plan for our lives.

It all began in the Garden of Eden with a relationship, and that relationship was damaged by sin.

God later instigated a relationship with a group of people known as the Israelites, out of which came the Savior of the World -- Jesus Christ from the Israelite tribe of Judah. It all happened because God loves us and desires a relationship with us.

The Bible is not about religion, it is about relationship -- a relationship that has been changing lives for several thousand years that essentially began with a man named Abram and continues on today in the lives of millions of people through Jesus.

Want to know who you are and where you are going?

Read the Bible and you should be able to find out.

It's just a thought ... but it could change yor life.
