If the Bible Says it I believe it!

If the Bible Says it I believe it!

When I was a child it was common knowledge that dogs had special healing powers in their tongues. When we got a sore on our finger or leg, our mother would tell us to go let the dog lick it, it will heal faster.  After all dogs lick their own wounds and they heal quickly.

I believed what Mom said because it seemed to work.  I questioned this one day, because there were others more educated than I who said it wasn't true it was only a wives tale. 

Then one day a study came out, the scientists discovered that dogs have a natural antibiotic in their saliva that has healing qualities.  I squeeled with delight, because what the uneducated experienced person said was true.  No need for "scientific evidence", the experience people had with it, prove to heal the wounds.

Then one day I ran across this scripture:  Luke 16:21 "Who desired to be fed with what fell from the rich man's table. Moreover, even the dogs came and licked his sores."

There was a time when scientists determined that the earth was flat.  Later other scientists discovered it was really round. 

Guess what God said about it?   Isaiah 40:22 "It is He who sits above the circle of the earth, And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers, Who stretches out the heavens like a curtain And spreads them out like a tent to dwell in."

God tells us all we need to know in His Word.  Those who knew the Bible would have known that the earth was round and dogs can heal a sore by licking it. 

The Bible is the best science book that ever existed and completely accurate.  We can be assured if the Bible says it, then we can believe it.
