Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners--of whom I am the worst. - 1 Timothy 1:15

On hearing this, Jesus said to them, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners." - Mark 2:17

Greatest Book Ever Known To Man


Do you want to learn more about the greatest book ever known to man?

The Bible is the greatest book because the Creator of the universe and of you and me gave it to man. Speaking of prophecy (scriptures) the apostle Peter wrote,

"For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Spirit" (2 Pet. 1: 21). While written by men, the Holy Spirit supplied even the very words used (I Cor. 2: 13). Hence, the scriptures are inspired (2 Tim. 3: 16, 17, see "Inspiration of the Scriptures" located in Archives).

It is in the Bible that we learn of our origin, purpose, and destiny (Gen. 1, 2; Eccl. 12: 13, 14; Matt. 25: 46). It is in the Bible that we learn of God - a being so perfect that he is love and how he loved man so much that he gave his only begotten Son (I Jn. 4: 8, Jn. 3: 16, Acts 17: 22-34)
