The purpose of publishing the Word is to save souls.

I detect that because of your education, you have a higher respect for man-achieved knowledge than I do.

As for me, I believe each "man-made advancement" in the past several hundreds of years (and perhaps throughout history) has been through Godly inspiration, tireless effort to follow through on the God-breathed idea, and with God's blessings.

Not all ideas have come from God or events caused by God, evidenced by His allowing Satan to continue his destructive works to eradicate godly men from the Earth...for God's Own reasons...and yet, God has never once relinquished control of anything or any situation. He alone is God and there is none other.

And lastly, I think of the Word of God as so very much more than printed words on pieces of paper or shown on an LCD screen. The Word of God is a Person with a Voice, the Lord Jesus Christ, alive and ready to appear on Earth again, this time to rule decisively, as soon as Our Heavenly Father sends Him with His saints and angels.

All of the Holy Scriptures (Books of the Holy Bible) point to Christ and are regarding Him in one way or another. Many folks, to their own detriment, still refuse to believe the Lord Jesus Christ is indeed the Son of the Living God and IS God.

I agree with your post and I do agree that most human achievements come from help from the Holy Spirit.
