We think the Christian Bible is a book everyone should read. It is full of knowledge and Wisdom, and it’s Scriptures are used in varying degrees by the three major religions of the world: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The Bible is the top selling book of all time, with over 5 billion copies sold. It is the world’s most recognized sacred text; written by 40 writers over a period of 1,600 years, recording 4,000 years of history, and defining the story of God and humanity from creation to a forever Kingdom established by God. Further, the Bible is a reminder that God exists, of His miracles, and the existence of the spiritual plane.
