452: Catholicism's SHOCKING attitude toward the Bible!
If Christ had intended His religion to be propagated and preserved by means of a book, can any conceivable reason be urged why He should not have written one?

455: A Better Life than this?
Yet Satan continues to help the happiness sellers package their fun in brightly colored, eye-appealing packages that make us want them desperately. Satan somehow convinces us that if we just had: a souped up car, a new dress, a good-looking boy or girl friend, lots of money, popularity, a sex life, a good figure, we would be happy. The truth is, Satan has sold us a bunch of garbage. Peter said that those who turned to worldly things for happiness were like dogs turning to his own vomit and pigs wallowing in the mire (II Peter 2:21-22). The things that Satan claims will make you happy just will not do it. Thank God there is a ... God made to you. Why be a chicken when you can be an eagle. Why walk when you can fly.

Many couples are not even aware of this threat to the marriage relationship until ... Something that is not good, but is so subtle that it is difficult to put a finger on it. Each partner becomes involved in his own work, club activities, and other worthwhile causes. You begin to spend more and more time apart. You are simply too busy to talk together and to be together. After a while you find that it doesn't even bother you to be apart so often. Complete indifference now characterizes a once vital and growing relationship. Obviously this is not what God had in mind when He said: ... We become terribly busy, too busy to say hello to our neighbor, too busy to spend much time with our marriage partner, and too busy to say, "I love you".

In the late hours, alone in her room on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, trapped in the undertow of two potent diseases, she runs on empty. "Some nights, the only thing I can do is read my Bible," she said. "I look in there to find answers. They're hard to find." Diabetes on top of mental illness asks a lot of a person, and of society. Mental illness is itself a money sponge, an expense borne largely by tax dollars. But that cost may be dwarfed by the bill to manage the heart attacks and amputations that diabetes bestows. With numerous mental institutions emptied, patients often live in lightly supervised settings. Many occupy adult homes that struggle, for good reasons and bad, at providing basic services and are poorly ... ...
