| The Inheritance An elderly lady once left the following to her nephew: "$20,000 and My Bible and All it Contains". The young man thought he knew what the Bible contained, so he didn't bother to open it. He merely picked it up, put it on a high shelf in his house, and headed for Las Vegas. It wasn't long until all his money was gone. He lived the next 60 years as a pauper, scraping for every meal and barely having the clothes on his back. As he was moving to a convalescent home, he reached up to grab that old Bible, and accidentally dropped it from his trembling hands. It fell to the floor and opened, revealing a $100 bill between EVERY single page. That man lived his life as a pauper when he could have lived in luxury, simply because of his prejudice. You see... He only THOUGHT he knew what the Bible contained. The truth is that most people don't know that the Bible contains a wealth of incredible scientific, medical and prophetic facts. We should be careful to not miss out on the important things in this life simply because we THINK we know what all the Bible contains. - Author Unknown |
