Key Words: great and precious promises
Thought: A Bible that is falling apart usually belongs to
someone who isn’t.
Let me begin by asking you: how
precious is the Bible to you?
A man in Kansas City was severely injured in an
explosion. Evangelist Robert L. Sumner
tells about him in his book The Wonders
of the Word of God. The victim’s
face was badly disfigured, and he lost his eyesight as well as both hands. He was just a new Christian, and one of his
greatest disappointments was that he could no longer read the Bible. Then he heard about a lady in England who
read Braille with her lips. Hoping to do
the same, he sent for some books of the Bible in Braille. Much to his dismay, however, he discovered
that the nerve endings in his lips had been destroyed by the explosion. One day, as he brought one of the Braille
pages to his lips, his tongue happened to touch a few of the raised characters
and he could feel them. Like a flash he
thought, I can read the Bible using my tongue.
At the time Robert Sumner wrote his book, the man had “read” through the
entire Bible four times.
