 REMINDER :


Before the Bible, the Church already existed.


The Bible is the fruit of the Church. Truth was not bound, it became Incarnate, truth is not an idea or a thing, or is tied to a book only, truth is a Person, Christ! The Second Person of the Holy Trinity, Head of the Church which is His Body, the Body that gave us the Bible
