In John 20:24, Thomas is called “Didymus.” “Didymus” means double or twin. Thus, we get our English word “ditto.”

I never knew that, until today! Just goes to show, you’re never too old to learn something!

- Al Hughes, preacher

Idolatry is to love what has been made more than the God who made it.

We want to be spiritually grown, but we don’t like growing because growing hurts.

As we have done in the past, we’ve found a John R. Rice Reference Edition of the Holy Bible out on eBay, and wanted to point it out to any of our site visitors.

This reference Bible is out of print, and is likely not going to be printed again any time soon. It features notes edited by John R. Rice, founder and Editor of THE SWORD OF THE LORD until his death in 1980.

We have no affiliation with this auction in any way. We’re just trying to help out people who are looking for a good study and reference Bible.

“It’s a lousy night to be an atheist.”
(ESPN commentator Rick Reilly, after All-Star Josh Hamilton, who because of addiction dropped out of baseball for three years, set a Home Run Derby record with 28 home runs in the first round. Hamilton said, “I thank my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for giving me this opportunity.”)
