The Good Book

The Bible is often called "The Good Book." One of the reasons for this is that the word good, depending on the English translation, is mentioned a minimum of 720 times and a maximum of 1120 times. The Bible mentions the word "good" more than it mentions the words: faith, joy, hope, salvation, or love. In the first chapter of the Bible alone, the story of creation, God looks at His creation and says it is good, seven times. Seven in the Bible means completeness, and God was saying His creation was completely good because He is a completely good God. His creation fell into sin and God is now in the business of restoring His creation to it's original goodness. That is what salvation is all about, restoring mankind to it's original goodness through God's salvation plan of His Son Jesus.

God's Word is good, because God is good.

I love you guys.
