By the book – A Quote from Henry Halley

Posted on July 2, 2014 Written by Mark McIntyre 4 Comments

Israel had a Book. It was only a fraction of what we now have in God’s Word, but oh how important! God’s solemn warning to Joshua, standing at the threshold of a gigantic task, was to be very careful to keep close to the words of that Book. Joshua listened and obeyed, and God honored […]
