                          Our True Treasure




            A
                 treasure  map takes  curious  people
                from here to there, picking up clues
            along  the  way,  until  the  sought-after
            treasure is found. Think of the Bible as
            our treasure map leading the way into the
            presence  of  a  loving  God  with  joys  for
            evermore.

                The first spot on our treasure map is
            found in the first verse in the Bible. “In the
            beginning God created the heavens and
            the earth” Genesis 1:1.
                The word translated God is Elohim in
            the  original  Hebrew,  which  is  a  plural
            noun. Familiar words that we use today
            that are plural nouns are people, sheep
