Failure is a Ministry
By: Jim Watson

Including A Countdown Of The Bible’s 25 Greatest Failures

The works of most contemporary Christian authors will not compare with this brief account of Bible failures and successfulness that span human history from Genesis through Revelation. Copiously quoting only the Authorized King James Version, the author contends that sin is the culprit of all of man’s problems and that its product, failure, is a ministry for believers in Christ as well as non-believers. This bare-bones searching of the Sacred Text should appeal to all lovers of God’s Word, of which the writer argues there are few. He believes that God uses sin and failure to guide all humans toward a crossroads decision that will determine their ultimate destiny: eternity with Christ or eternity in hell without Him. The heart of this treatise is a countdown of whom the author perceives as the 25 greatest Bible failures. Others are briefly documented who realized that their only hope of salvation was looking forward to the cross of Christ or back to it. The author closes with a brief personal testimony and his loose connection with Columbia shuttle commander Rick Husband.
