REMEMBER

Winston Churchill (1874-1965) said, “The longer you look back, the farther you can look forward.”

This is why the word “remember” is so often used in the Bible! If we’ll study the past (and learn from it!) we can move forward because we’ll avoid the mistakes and imitate the successes.

Philip Schaff (1819-1893), the great church historian, put it like this: “History is, and must ever continue to be, next to God’s Word, the richest foundation of wisdom, and the surest guide to all successful practical activity.”
