The One Deadly Mistake...We All Make


Book Description

"The Bible is the Word of God. In it He makes known to man His Character and Will. It is given by inspiration of the Holy Spirit, and is profitable to all, teaching men what to believe, showing them in what they are wrong, instructing them in what is right. Although written by men, God directed them what to write and how to write, that as a rule of faith and guide to practice it might be perfect. A knowledge of this book is more to be desired than fine gold, for in understanding, believing and obeying it there is great reward, both here and hereafter." Quoted from "An Introductory History of The Manuscript and Early Printed Editions of the Holy Bible" (1876). The History of Man The Father they chose to disobey The Prophet they would not hear The Teacher they refused to be instructed by. From my earliest memory in time, I sensed things were not right. The words people spoke and the things they valued didn't make much sense to me. When I arrived at the age of legal adulthood I knew my life journey needed to focus on finding the answers to the "whys" of life-so I put myself through college, traveled, listened to the life stories of hundreds if not thousands of individuals (their true life story-not the story they play out in public), and studied the history and the basic core beliefs of established religions and famous philosophers. It wasn't until I took the time to study the "Book of Life" itself that I discovered the answers to the "whys" of life. I discovered The One Deadly Mistake.We All Make.
