ROMANS 1: 24-28 (32) EXCHANGED FOR TRUTH / THE TRUTH EXCHANGE As God put a homing device in migratory birds so that they know to fly to warmer weather when the temperature gets too cold, so He has put within man the homing device so that they should fly to Him away from evil.

Contributed by David Scudder on Apr 25, 2011

In a conversation, someone posed an interesting and much needed question to me. "Is it wise to think outside of the box?" There are many, including myself, who have used this phrase.
