The Stranger on the Road to Emmaus

Hi Everyone,

I see that we sold out of both books on Sunday so those of you who start a little later can follow a long. The temptation will be to skip a head remember please do not do this because the purpose is to follow in order the book.

I am challenged by the author to do something that requires a lot of discipline for me. That is sticking with the flow of a book or story. If I am familiar with something I tend to want to skip ahead. I found by resisting this temptation I was pleasantly surprised with a few thoughts I never thought of before.

Here are few questions from the work book to answer.

1. The Bible is the oldest and longest bestseller. True or false
2. In many ways, the bible is like a puzzle - to understand it accurately, the pieces must be put together in the right way. true or false
3. The Bible addresses many different subjects and themes. if you randomly mix these themes or subjects together, the result will be:

• a clear understanding of the bible
• confusion

• The Bible is a Collection of how many different books?
• How many people did God use to write these books?
• Over how many years did it take to write the entire bible?
• According to Scripture who was the author of every single book of the bible?
• What significant claim does the bible make about itself in relation to God?

For further consideration:

How can we tell a real prophet of God?
read Deuteronomy Chapter 18 Verse 20 and Verse 22
what did you learn/


Please read the following verses, What are they telling us about the book you are holding in your hand ( The Bible)?

2 Timothy Chapter 3 verse16

2 Peter Chapter 1 verse 20 & 21

Psalm 119 Verse 160

It OK to use the Table of contents to find these books. ( that is what it is there for)

Have Fun!
