Snopes didn't debunk this news but do you think that this bible and with it its message are real?

And if they are how come our mainstream media avoid this message every year?

Nope.

I saw the picture. It answered my question: Only one verse was preserved?

And the answer is, "no".

There is no reason to believe this story, nice though it sounds. I don't do Facebook much, but when I do, I'm really disappointed in so much of the nonsense my friends just soak up because it's "Christian".

The epitome of that is this picture:

For those that don't get it, here's a better version:

Generally speaking, people are pretty gullible if they trust the source and don't put a lot of thought into a thing. This one was easy for me because I knew who it was immediately, and when people to post "pictures" of Jesus, I always say, "That looks more like Jerry Garcia to me."

Regarding this story, it looks like a whole page was "frozen" and a lot of Jesus sermon was preserved. No need to single out a single one unless you have an agenda.

Answer to Question #1: It’s possible.

Answer to Question #2: You know the answer already.

Never heard of the Bible thing and doubt it.
Oh, there were no “nukes on the tarmac,”. We no longer had manned bombers sitting nuke alert. This makes the entire piece nothing but alarmist nonsense.

[Psalm 73]

"For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart."
Hebrews 4:12

[Rurudyne]

Back in the day I thought of a different verse: “Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them: do you think that they were worse offenders than all the others who lived in Jerusalem? No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.”

There were people who knew the Lord when our towers fell. They did not perish even if they died.

But in the 19 years since rather than repentance we have seen a fruit that can be judged, the championing of homosexuality, appearing everywhere in our society which should let us know that people have been accelerating their refusal to retain the knowledge of the Lord.

9/11 was not some great judgement on America ... it was just the then latest act of war in Islam’s war against the whole of humanity in the last 14 centuries of naked aggression ... but the culture war from the Left though is only succeeding because a different sort of judgment is arguably already taking place.

Setting aside the question of plausibility, the verse is solid and one I think most Christians have pondered. This Christian understands it to mean that we should control our desire to lash out and do harm against those who offend us so that we might take pleasure in their suffering. On board with that. I do not think it means that if a maniac breaks into our home and begins killing our family that we should not neutralize that evil immediately and completely. Acquaintances at the time (who were suddenly biblical scholars) also bleated the refrain to “turn the other cheek”, and not seek “retribution”. I pointed out to them that retribution should not be our goal; our goal should be to forever eliminate the source of that horrifying evil, and thereby prevent it from ever harming our people ever again. This, I pointed out, would be a counter-attack, and not a temper tantrum. Some got it. Most did not. Jesus was not a wuss.
