I received an email this morning, about constitutional protection, and a miracle confirmed. It referred to page 1117 in the King James Bible. This got my curiosity, since no one refers to the Bible by page numbers. I have 2 Bibles that don’t have that large a number since the NT starts numbers over; other Bibles have Solomon about the build the temple, and the end of I Corinthians. How stupid! ---

Was there a link you were supposed to click? Or a file to download? There may have been more information about the miracle. ---
