Q: Which chapter is in the center of the Bible?
A: Psalms 118

Q: What is the center verse in the Bible?
A: Psalms 118:8
Q: Does this verse say something significant about God's perfect will for our lives?
Psalms 118:8
"It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man."
Now isn't that odd how this worked out (or was God in the center of it)?
The next time someone says they would like to find
God's perfect will for their lives and that they want to
be in the center of His will, just send them to the
center of His Word!

I did not know this and I will send them to this chapter and let them read it. I think that God is always in control of everything but we just dont want to let him be.

The Bible does not state that earth is the center of the universe. This is something the hierarchy came up with on their own. At one time this group firmly believed that earth was flat when the Bible states clearly that it is a sphere. All this information in the Bible was as available then as it is now. They just didn't look for it. Instead history tells us this organization was to busy writing doctrine, developing political and commerce alliances so they could rule the world. Slandering Jesus his Father and His Kingdom by not abiding by the scriptures or following their teachings.

very cool - but it looks like your numbers are a little off - Psalms 117 is the middle chapter - I am looking at a Protestant Bible, not the Catholic version and NIV traslation
but I think the point is still made - the Psalm is about praising God - as for the center verse I think that will change depending on traslation but not sure of that

Wonder if I can use Psalms 118:8 next time I debate the judge over my speeding ticket?

Is this the Catholic Bible which has 6 more books than the protestant versions of the Bible i.e. King James,/ Revised edition or New International Version?

Have you tried using chicken instead of pork? You shouldn't have to modify your cooking time, and it might cut down on the grease. And grease is what is keeping your batter from rising properly.
And no, paprika is not the problem, so keep it in there!

Well, the bible compilers must have put it there on purpose to impress people who are easily impressed.
