The six days of creation. David and Goliath. The Good Samaritan. Moses' brass rod and serpent. Jesus and the adultress.
Familiar Biblical stories all, but, have you ever wondered – truly wondered – why in the creation account for instance, God proclaimed day three as the only one worthy of a double proclamation of goodness? Why David picked up five stones for his confrontation with the mighty Philistine? What the real reason might have been for the priest and the Levite to bypass their wounded brother? Why Moses was instructed to construct a brass serpent affixed to a pole to represent Jesus on the cross? And finally, just what was Jesus writing in the dirt when the Pharisees presented him with the adulteress for stoning?
If you've asked yourself these types of questions as you hear or read these and other Biblical accounts, then grab your Bible, find a quiet, comfortable place, and be prepared to experience Scripture, and possibly even God Himself, in a whole new way. Be prepared to enjoy just a small taste of the love, the wisdom – and the mysteries – of God.
