day no. 14,728: words matter

If God says something once, it should be enough. When God says something 7,365 times, it should be more than enough.

TOP 100 BIBLE NOUNS IN THE KJV

The word, "Lord" is the most popular noun used in the Bible, occurring 7,365 times. 

LORD - 7365
GOD - 4293
MAN - 2747
ISRAEL - 2509
PEOPLE - 2271

LORD is by far and away the most popular noun in Bible which leaves no doubt as to WHO the Main Character is and WHAT the book is about. 

Q: Who is the hero? The protagonist? The LORD! 

GOD is the second most popular word. So when combined with LORD, it's 11,658 times that the words LORD or GOD are used.

The next most popular word is MAN, at 2,747 times. Even when combined with ISRAEL and PEOPLE it's still only 7,527, which is much less than LORD/GOD.

So the Bible is primarily about God and secondarily it's about people, specifically this people Israel (whom the NT says are those who worship Jesus - i.e. true Israel)

That's what THIS story is about.
