J) It really boiling down to two things, love God and your neighbor.
E)Make something as simple as possible but no simpler.

J) All the worlds treasure are in wisdom and knowledge
E) Imagination is more important then knowledge, for imagination embraces the whole world


Wise words my friend. One doesn't have to be a Bible expert to be a great follower of Christ. Many learned Christians know all the verses and laws but lack sufficient love.

Is John 7:53 scripture? The NKJV says it is, while the ESV says it isn't. Who's right, and how do you know?
