What is the Bible all about?
It
is about JESUS. JESUS is the
preeminent person in the preeminent book.
GOD the FATHER and the HOLY Spirit testify to CHRIST’S greatness
(Mark 9:7, John 14:16; 16:8). HE is the KING, the Prophet, the High
Priest, the Lawgiver. CHRIST told the Jews concerning Moses, “He wrote
about ME” (John 5:46). John said, “These are written that you may
believe that JESUS is the CHRIST, the SON of GOD, and that believing you
may have life in HIS name” (John 20:31).
The dispensation of CHRIST is the
greatest dispensation, for the apostle calls it the dispensation of the
“fullness of time; (Galatians 4:40).
The message of GOD’S preacher is “CHRIST and HIM crucified” (1
Corinthians 2:2). That was
Paul’s theme (1Corinthians 1:21).
In fact, each of the divinely sent preachers of the New Testament
preached CHRIST.
No man ever had a grander theme.
The apostle speaks of “the unsearchable riches of yyPaul wrote,
“The Law was our tutor to bring us to CHRIST, that we might be justified
by faith” (Galatians 3:24).

RICH WITHOUT MONEY.
Some of the world’s wealthiest people had
little money. (Mark 12:41-44) (2 Corinthians 8:1-5,9) (Philippians
2:5-11). If you have a good
name, they you are rich without money (Proverbs 22:1). If you have good
health, then you are rich without money (Acts 3:1-10);
( 3 John 1:2). If
you have friends, then you are rich without money (Proverbs 18:24)
(1 Samuel 23:16) (3 John 1:14). If you have a happy home,
then you are rich without money (Proverbs 18:22; 19:14) Matthew 19:3-9)
(Ephesians 5:22-33).
 PRAYERS NEEDED: Cancer
Always remember our young people who have grown out of the family home and are pursuing studies and careers, that they continue to seek wisdom from the omni-present Father. And that they continue to hold Him first in their lives.
THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK In 1938 H.G. Wells produced a radio drama show entitled "The War of the Worlds." It thrust Grover Mills, NJ into international limelight as the site of an alien landing where Martians landed. Patterned after a similar "newscast" concerning riots in London by the BBC in 1926 and an invasion of Australia in 1927, the New York Times declared "Orson Wells Causes Panic." An Australian newspaper decried "the mass hysteria in the U.S."
