 ** Truth and Power ...**
+The bible is a book full of truth. It is a book full of wisdom. There are many layers of this book - from
+its historical contents to the parables, it includes ethics and wisdom. All of it is important. Its goal,
+with all of its parts, is to bring us into a relationship with the Lord, to make us to disciples,  to
+parts of his community, to restore the relationship between mankind and God, on an individual basis,
+one by one, by faith and trust!
+The truth of the biblical books can be found and experienced on many levels. It can be found by digging into
+history. It can be found by research, by modern tools and archeaology. It can also be found on the conceptual
+level: its insight into what man and women are. Its descriptions of guilt and reconciliation. It is just
+the most realistic view into the history of mankind you can have.
+It can also experienced by the power of the holy spirit, when you come to faith and let God enter your
+life through the holy spirit. It is a spirit of power - not the physical power of cannons and the sword, but
+the power of love, peace and forgiveness, the power of a life which finds to the source of life! God wants
+to come into our hearts, and give us a personal freedom beyond our wildest dreams.
