As someone with a history background, I found the Bible to be quite interesting (that also means it won't have the most interesting language..I have fallen asleep reading it late at night)....well the Old Testament that is, which is why I only appreciated the New Testament for its moral values.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.
