SCRIPTURE on the word vs the world.

  The word vs the world.  1 Peter 1  24 For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away:  25 But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you. KJV 24 for “All flesh is like grass and all its glory like the flower of grass. The grass withers, and the flower falls, 25 but the word of the Lord remains forever.” And this word is the good ne ws that was preached to you.    The ESV® Bible (The Holy Bible, English Standard Version®) Isaiah 40:8 The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God stands forever."
