Bible Note: Dear Steve, Greetings in Jesus' name! Though you may have ignored the Bible, I assure you that C.S. Lewis and the 'odd sermon now and then' did not! I, too was very ignorant of the Bible because I was brought up in a country that has very few Christians. This does not mean that the Bible was not working in my life, only that I had no *direct* influence. When I came to the Lord, I was not 'beat over the head' with a Bible, but those blessed friends (now I know) always used God's Word as the basis of their witness and testimony of Christ. Please do not underestimate the efficacy of the Word, which is made alive (quickened) by the Holy Spirit. Blessings and peace in Christ Jesus, charis |
