This is the Bible. One doesn't "rate" it. We hope that through it we may improve our rating in the Kingdom of heaven. We are known through our fruit. Some seem to feel this is "dated" by which I take it to mean it is the original King James Version. That surprised me at first but his wonderful sonorous voice fits the text. It would be nice if he could read the whole Bible. But listen to this again. By this the whole law and the prophets are fulfilled.
