You Can't Hide That Cigarette From Him!

By Rod Anderson, CP Cartoonist Tuesday, February 16, 2016

Lots of people nickname the Bible "God's instruction manual for life" — and for good reason. The most essential truths we need to know find their home in this book. Without the Bible, we wouldn't be as deeply aware of our need for salvation or even know where to find salvation. Without the Bible, we folks of 2015 would be left to mere speculation about pretty big things like the will of our Creator and his purpose for our lives.

But does God's written revelation tell us everything we need to know about everything? No, it doesn't.

Is every situation I might face in this life going to be right there in this black and white "instruction manual"? Most definitely not.

The Scriptures don't specify whether or not I can do things like drink wine, smoke cigarettes, or watch "The Walking Dead."
