The Power & Beauty of the Bible

There is no other book as powerful as the Bible; and no other book that has stood the test of time and scrutiny.

The entire Bible was written so that we may know and worship God through His Son Jesus Christ. The Bible is a volume of 66 different books, letters and poems.

This is what the Bible says about itself:

"All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work."

2 Timothy 3:16-17
