Looking
Through History's Window
by
David E. Young
Genre:
Nonfiction, History
In
growing up in a church, and then spending seven years in a Bible
College and Seminary, I was blessed to hear many outstanding and
gifted preachers and Bible teachers. Many used interesting stories or
illustrations to drive their points home. In listing of some of these
illustrations, I thought I would like to know more details. Sometimes
I wondered (thankfully not too often) if the details of the story
were really true or accurate as told. Beyond doubt, this could be
partly attributed to years of reading “Ripley’s Believe It Or
Not” feature in virtually every newspaper’s Sunday comics
section. With that in mind, I have included with each illustration
not only a title, Scripture verse and topic word, but also the source
of the historical story so anyone who is interested can, with the
help of modern technology and internet databases, not only find more
details regarding the story, but also find documentation to confirm
that each story can be validated.
The details of every
illustration are, as far as can be validated by historical records,
are true.
