the divine mentor

I think it should amaze us - stun us - every day how invaluable is this book we call the Bible!
God breathed himself into the whole library and said to us, "If you read this, I will let you sit with
Jacob. I will let you walk through the deserts with Moses - and the same wisdom that I gave to
Moses, I will transfer to you... if you will only take to heart the words written here."

You can walk with Esau and ask him why he sold his birthright.
You can sit by the fire with David and ask him how he felt when Absalom turned on him or when
Nathan confronted him.
It's all here - the Bible is the greatest Book of Wisdom in the entire universe.

The men and women the Lord highlights in His Book continue to bear divine testimony all through
the ages. They say to you and me, "This is what I did wrong. This is where I made a false turn.
This is where I did better. This is where I pleased the loving heart of my Almighty Father."

Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses,
let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles,
and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. (Heb 12:1)
