The Bible

The Bible is not a book to play with as it have more attached to it than a piece of paper with written letters compiled together. It is a map as it guide, lead and direct; it is also an instructor as it contains God’s Command which encourage and correct us. It is a weapon as we through the word know what is needed to become a victor; it also shields, protects and gives us a close relationship with God.

John 1:1 says “In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and the word was God.”
