I know. Most of you only read one book. I read many to understand the history of the world and its various attitudes toward death.

You have no concept at all of what I read or don't read....

What I believe, whose authority I have faith in, and the Word of God we've been given is supported fully by that Word and His Spirit He has given us as His possession.

All the Worldly understanding of History cannot compare....for it remains worldly however helpful.

Oh, baloney. I love to read historical books. In fact, when I first started college, I wanted to major in history. I had wonderful history teachers in high school and they brought it alive. One of my favorite classes was ancient history. I learned a lot in my genealogy research and that helped bring it alive further. When I was researching my late husband’s ancestors years ago, some lived during the Black Death. Frankly, I learned a lot more about that than I really wanted. Such a sad time when whole towns died and no one was there to bury the dead. That is when I learned about the Catholics killing people for having their own Bible. Another very sad time. Reading is my favorite hobby and why I was so worried about my recent eye surgeries. My last surgery was a month ago but they are still inflamed and swollen. Thank God, I am no longer seeing double. He is the answer.
