The Centre of the Bible
This came from a school friend of mine in Canada. I wondered if you would be interested in it for the magazine. Juliet Foster [Carlton]
The Centre of the Bible
This is pretty strange or odd how it worked out this way.
Even if you are not religious you should read this.
What is the shortest chapter in the Bible?
Answer - Psalm 117
What is the longest chapter in the Bible?
Answer - Psalm 119
Which chapter is in the centre of the Bible?
Answer - Psalm 118
Fact: There are 594 chapters before Psalm 118
Fact: There are 594 chapters after Psalm 118
Add these numbers up and you get 1188.
What is the centre verse in the Bible?
Answer - Psalm 118 : 8
Does this verse say something significant about God's perfect will for our lives? The next time someone says they would like to find God's perfect will for their lives and that they want to be in the centre of His will, just send them to the centre of His Word!
Psalm 118 : 8 (NJ)
"It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man."
Now isn't that odd how this worked out
(or was God in the center of it)?
When things get tough, always remember...
Faith doesn't get you around trouble. It gets you through it!
Be blessed!
