I don't have a problem believing in God and Jesus. But in Genesis one has to wonder about these sentences that just go on and end without finishing. The thought is unfinished. Where did Adam go? What is he doing? Hello? There has to be some pages missing.
Without God democracy will not and cannot long endure.
It is impossible to rightly govern a nation without God and the Bible.
The Bible is one of the greatest blessings bestowed by God on the children of men. It has God for its author salvation for its end and truth without any mixture for its matter. It is all pure.
