    Basic Information Before Leaving Earth

    Don't read to remember; read to realize.

    The more you read the Bible, the more you will love its author.

    “the Bible is still relevant today. In fact, it’s more up to date than tomorrow's newspaper."

    Many books can inform you. Only the Bible can transform you.

    As long as you know that God is for you, it doesn't matter who is against you.
