Assumption Quote by Tullian Tchividjian

“Contrary to popular assumptions, the Bible is not a record of the blessed good, but rather the blessed bad. Thats not a typo. The Bible is a record of the blessed bad. The Bible is not a witness to the best people making it up to God; its a witness to God making it down to the worst people.” quote by Tullian Tchividjian — Download Open image
