The Bible is the greatest book ever penned. There has never been another like it nor will there ever be. The Bible answers the three greatest questions of life: Where did I come from? (Gen 1:26-27); Why am I here? (Ecc 12:13) And Where am I going? (John 5:28-29). The Bible is God-given (2 Pet 1:21; 2 Tim 3:16-17). It contains the Gospel, God's power to save (Rom 1:16). The Bible contains the words by which we shall all be judged on the last day (John 12:48).
