Thread: What would you consider as a good introduction or preface to the Bible?

In the beginning there was nothing and God said let there be light.

And there was still nothing but everyone could see it.

Once upon a time...

We don't need one.

Romans chapter 9 emphasized God's sovereignty: It is God who carries out His purpose (9:11); it is God who elects (9:11); it is God who calls (9:11); it is God who shows mercy and has compassion (9:15-16); it is God who hardens (9:18); it is God who prepares the vessels of mercy unto glory (9:23); it is God who has called Jews and Gentiles in one body (9:24).
Romans chapter 10 emphasizes mans responsibility: It is man who must pray (10:1); it is man who must submit (10:3); it is man who must believe (10:4); it is man who must believe in his heart and confess with his mouth (10:9-10); it is man who must call upon the name of the Lord (10:12-13); it is man who must hear and believe the gospel (10:14-17). God does the saving but man must do the believing (see Acts 16:31; 1 Cor.1:21).

Warning the charaters in this book are ficticious, i know it is obvious but in case they are some deluded people who actually believe in fairy tales like the bible!
