Truth Or Error?
October 29, 2010

Steve often witnesses to his co- workers. But when he mentions something directly from the Bible, someone frequently responds: “Wait! That was written by men, and it’s full of errors just like any other book.”

The following letter to the editor in our local newspaper expresses a similar thought: “Believers cite that the Word of God is infallible, but I see no apparent reason to believe that the words written in the Bible by man are any more infallible than the words written in a science journal by man.”

How do we respond when the Scriptures are so readily dismissed as being just man’s words with errors? Most of us aren’t biblical scholars and may not have an answer. But if we do some reading (2 Tim. 2:15), we’ll find the evidence that it’s God-inspired (3:16) and therefore trustworthy.

For example, consider this: Over a period of 1,600 years, 40 different authors wrote the 66 books of the Bible. There were 400 silent years between the 39 books of the Old Testament and the 27 of the New Testament. Yet, Genesis to Revelation tell one unified story.

While we accept the Bible by faith, there’s plenty of evidence that it’s true. Let’s be diligent to study and share what we learn with others.

In a skeptical world you can trust God’s reliable Word.

Read: 2 Timothy 3:14-17

Be diligent to present yourself approved to God. —2 Timothy 2:15

Bible in a year:
Jeremiah 18-19; 2 Timothy 3

"Wear Red" Friday

You will soon see a lot of people wearing Red on Fridays. Here's why..... The Americans, who support our troops, are the silent majority. We are not "organized" to reflect who we are, or to reflect what our opinions are. Many Americans, like yourself, and all their friends, simply want to recognize that Americans support our troops. Our idea of showing our solidarity and support for our troops is starting Friday and continuing on each and every Friday, until this is over, that every red-blooded American who supports our young men and women, WEAR SOMETHING RED.

Word of mouth, press, TV -- let's see if we can make the United States, on any given Friday, a sea of red much like a home football game at a University. If every one of our memberships share this with other acquaintances, fellow workers, friends, and neighbors, I guarantee that it will not be long before the USA will be covered in RED - and make our troops know there are many people thinking of their well-being. You will feel better all day Friday when you wear Red! So let's get the word out and lead by example; wear RED on Fridays.

SUPPORT OUR TROOPS! WE LIVE IN THE LAND OF THE FREE, BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE. FOR US, THEIR BLOOD RUNS RED!! GOD BLESS AMERICA.

Neat pictures of your son’s “Miss Kitty”. That sounds like a very unique house in the woods with stairs to the roof. :)

[jaycee]

Thank you, Billie! ;o)

[Billie]

"Looks like the fog is rolling in soon. Got picture just in time!! :)"

Yes, it's a wonder my little camera phone took such a great picture with the fog rolling in so quickly. :)

Thanks, ladies - it is nice and serene-looking. Have I mentioned I love autumn? :)

[Billie]

Oh, what an adorable white puppy - there goes my heart again!

[Billie]

What a beautiful setting - I would enjoy a drive down that road!

[Billie]

Thank you, Meg. And thank you for sharing another of your wonderful autumn settings - colors are so peaceful and quiet.

Have never been to Ireland, but that sunset is absolutely gorgeous!

[jaycee]

Well, actually her name is now ‘Sassy’, thanks to you, my friend! And my son thanks you, too!

I will send you a pic of his house by FReepmail (when I locate it). I call it a 2 story round house...but actually its octagonal! Its in the beautiful woods just as he likes it! His brother and I said it was just the perfect house for him!
