Peter said, "holy men spake as they were moved by the Holy Spirit" and that "all things pertaining unto life and godli ness" have been given (2 Peter 1:21, 3). Paul said scripture Is given by inspiration of God," is "profitable" and is able to fur Dennis Moss minister Why have those who claim to follow the Bible not found religious unity? Men have rejected it while claiming to follow it. Many, seeking to follow it permit themselves to be guided by various sets of wrong rules of interpretation and still others re ject the word for the traditions of men. How could any book or any voice bring about unity when men reject all or part of it? The Bible will bring about unity ust as surely as anything else if men will heed it. The fault is not in God's word but in men Read your Bible. Study and learn it. It is God's word to every man. This message is supported by Christians seeking the unity of believers in the non-denominational CHURCH OF CHRIST Tune in "HERALD OF TRUTH'; Coasr-to-Coast ABC Mutual Advent Christian Lists Activities; I Services Planned "When Do We Need Re vival?" will be the sermon topic Sunday at the 11 a.m. worship service at Advent Christian church, 704 Welch st.

Some two thousand times the Bible affirms, "Thus saith the Lord." . Some have suggested the Bible cannot be our sole guide in religious matters. They have pointed to the divisions among those who profess to follow it as proof of the inadequacy of the Bible. Yet this does not follow. Paul said "God is not the author of confusion" (1 Cor. 14:33). Yet God is the author of the Bible. The deeds of rebellion and division have always been even before the Bible.
