I would say my bible knowledge is average. But after rearranging books this past week I have concluded that I have absolutely NO EXCUSE for not knowing and studying the word of God considering the number of Bibles I have collected.
ALL the books pictured here are Bibles. And all but one is in English. They represent different translations, print size, commentary notes and lives. One is my parent's family bible. I have two that belonged to my dad and at least two that were my moms. One, I was given as a child and the other when I became an adult. My current bible isn't even in this picture. One of these each belonged to my Great great grandfather, my great grandmother and my grandmother. My grandmother proudly presented me with 5 generation of bibles (when one of mine and my mom's was included) for my College graduation. I have a legacy of bibles but the question is, do I put them to use. Is my study of the bible and application of it leaving a legacy for the Lord I profess to follow. Am I studying the word of God or simply letting it be an ornament. May this collection motivate me to study the word of God, pray for those who don't have access, and freely share with those in need of the word.
Oh yeah, hear is my hymnal collection. I like collecting them too!
