Is The Bible Worth Reading

This work, Is The Bible Worth Reading,  is simply 108 short quips and quotes on different subjects. Note the title of the work comes from the 1st of these sections, and the entire work deals very little or almost nothing with bibliology. The quotes cover all subjects related to Christianity.

Note from Editor: Please forgive me, but this work’s original title had nothing to do with its contents. I am renaming this book to something more descriptive of its contents.–David Cox
