GOD’S POWERFUL WORD
The Bible contains about 800,000 words, depending on the translation. This is about four times as many words as are found in a book of average length. Although the Bible is so long and deals with the greatest themes that can engage the human mind, its vocabulary is singularly limited. It uses only 6,000 different words, a very small number compared to the 20,000 words that Shakespeare employed while writing his plays. Not only is the Bible’s vocabulary limited, but the average word in it contains only five letters. However, many of these short words are full of the deepest meanings and are worthy of earnest study. For example, consider these five-letter words: grace, peace, faith, saved, serve, glory and Jesus.

I visited your web site today with loving thoughts of the 1st Christian family.
My husband, Dave Kime was the pastor there in 1985. We have such fond memories of everyone there.
I am sending greetings to all from Boca Raton, FL. God has been faithful and we love Him.
Our son, David lives in Castle Rock, CO and Chris lives with us because he has a serious mental illness.
Please share this e-mail address to my friends there. Thank you, His for eternity, Donna Kime
