Christ is the Word of God in person. The Bible is the Word of God in writing. Both are the Word of God in the words of men. Both have a human nature and a divine nature.

The six things in life that never get boring are knowing and loving God, your neighbor, and yourself.

Indifference is the only road that never gets to God.
