    The Bible is NOT like any other book; its words are ALIVE! David compared God’s words to the purest gold, once it has finished going through the smelting process. The Word of God, like gold, is Trustworthy, Indestructible, Flawless, and Valuable.

    This lesson begins exploring the existence and nature of God.

    Introduction: The Question Behind Every Question The Bible opens with a bold and beautiful claim: “In the beginning, God…” (Genesis 1:1).
