I nostri padri erano convinti di vivere sotto l’occhio di Dio: la sua esistenza era certa come quella del sole che sorge e tramonta. Oggi abbiamo smesso di crederci, o anche solo di pensarci. E la Bibbia nessuno la legge più. Invece la Bibbia è un libro meraviglioso. Che si può leggere anche come un grande romanzo. L’autobiografia di Dio. Aldo Cazzullo fa con la Bibbia quel che aveva fatto con Dante: ci racconta la storia, in modo chiaro e comprensibile a tutti, con continui riferimenti all’attualità, alla nostra vita, passando attraverso le vicende storiche e i capolavori dell’arte.

Devotion to the Sacred Heart is perhaps the most widely practiced of all Catholic devotions, where the heart of Jesus is seen as a symbol of "God's endless and fervent love for all." Evidence of such devotion dates to the 11th and 12th centuries in a number of Benedictine or Cistercian monasteries. It was also widely advocated by the well-known saints Bonaventure (d. 1274) and Gertrude (d. 1302).

Of all the sixty-six books that comprise our Bible, the last book is meant to thrill and exhilarate the believer like none other. A beautiful Christ is unveiled while a company of overcoming saints is seen rising into the fullness of Christ. The book of Revelation is exciting, powerful, and dynamic. But it must be more to us than merely an unveiling of events to come. Revelation must be an experience of encountering the living Christ. God is ready to unveil this book to those who are ready to receive it, eat it, and live fully in the splendor of Christ. The unveiling is more than a vision given to John, but is also meant to be an inward discovery, a delightful unveiling within you. This is not a drama of Satan’s worst, but a supernatural drama of God’s best, pouring through his beautiful Son, Jesus Christ.

The books of the Bible were written at different times by different authors over a period of approximately 1,500 years from around 1400 BC through AD 90.
