was an African prince who came to England and was introduced to Her Majesty Queen Victoria. The prince made a very significant question, "What is the secret of the greatness of England?" The Queen presented the prince a beautifully bound Bible and told him "This is the secret of the greatness of England."
The greatness of a man and a woman is not in their degrees, postgraduate or property its greatness lies in living day to day what the Word of God, to obey the commandments. And is that the Bible gives quality of life.
Michael Faraday, one of the greatest scientists of the nineteenth century experimenters, said: "Why do men go astray when they have this blessed book of God to guide them.
Many families have Bibles in their homes, but the sad thing is they have them as decoration, why not read it. It is everything that man needs to know. There are tips for all and gives the output for any problem.
John Adams, second U.S. president, said, "I have examined all (the Scriptures) as well as my narrow sphere, my straightened means, and my working life to me consider leaving, and I find the result that the Bible is the best book in the world. Contains more of my little philosophy all the libraries I've seen, and parts of it that I can not reconcile with that little philosophy, I postpone for future research. "Then, another president, John Quincy Adams said," I speak as a man of the world to men the world, and say: Search the Scriptures. The Bible is a book about all the others to be read at all ages and all conditions of human life, not to be read once or twice and then be set aside, but is to be read in small portions one or two chapters every day. "
These men ruled the country from the north, where, he enjoyed being a great nation. They did not engage in wars with other countries and they were able to solve problems. The difference, taking into account the Word of God.
Sad that this is only a thing of the past, now the rulers and the families of the earth take important decisions without considering what the Bible says. Understand, then, why the failure of nations.
Thomas Jefferson said this about the Bible, "Always I said and keep saying, that the perusal of the Sacred Volume will make us citizens, spouses and parents of the best. "
However, today there are more broken families again, adultery and abandonment of children, most people believe that a psychologist, a politician or the media what the Word says.
Daniel Webster said: "If there is something in my style or thought that is praise, praise is due my kind parents instill a love for early Scripture. "
How many parents are instilling in their children real love for the Word How many parents tell their children that the Bible is the map of life? We tell them to be wise must search the Scriptures. Now there is more concern for complete volumes are read geography, literature, medicine, but what about the space it deserves the word. Companies are very intellectual, but not wisdom.
J. MagGee Vernon said the Bible is a book very human, written by men of all occupations. Among them was a prince and a poor man had a very intellectual, and also one very simple. For example, Dr. Luke wrote in Greek almost classic and beautiful at a time when he was very popular about Koine Greek. But Simon Peter also wrote something in Greek. He was a fisherman and his Greek was not as good, but the Holy Spirit used the two men. Allowed to express their thoughts, emotions, and yet by this method dominated the Spirit of God so that said exactly what he meant. That is the wonder of the book, the Bible.
If only the nations, families and every human being back to Scripture, another was the reality. Built homes, happy families, countries without violence and crime. The nations would do well in the economy, politics, example is Joseph in Egypt, Daniel in Babylon. The wisdom of these men was that those nations would be great.
Let the Bible for our daily bread.
With love to you and me
