DID YOU KNOW? The Bible was not originally divided into numbered chapters and verses. This was man-made and done for convenience of looking up and referencing passages of Scripture.

What follows is not a translation in the ordinary sense of the word. It’s more like a paraphrase. Rather than worry over the letter of the text, the goal has been to illuminate the large scale patterns that structure it.

Their overriding concern is with the letter of the text, not with its logic. As a result, Paul’s forest is always getting sacrificed for the sake of his trees. But Paul’s work is too important, his good news...

My calling is to encourage people to commence a systematic and regular way of reading their Bible so that they could do it at least once in their lifetime. Very often I find people reading only the book of Psalms. Seldom had they read the book of Revelation or Leviticus, not because they don’t want to, but they think they cannot understand or they consider it irrelevant for the present times. God, in all His mercy, has preserved these books and pages through thousands of years of war, famine and persecution that we should read and benefit in our march of Faith. The aim of these Bible ...
