The Bible

 

 

Our Greatest Treasure The letters in the word “Bible”, B-I-B-L-E, signify the meaning Basic Instruction Before Leaving Earth.

 

 

The Bible contains the mind and the voice of God. Philippians 2:5, Psalms 103:20 It explains the state of man and the way of salvation, the doom of sinners, and the happiness of believers. The doctrines of the Scriptures are holy, and their precepts are binding. Its histories are true, and its decisions are immutable.

 

 

Lets read Philippians 2:5 Psalms 103:20, Jude 25, Psalms 119:89, Ecclesiastes 8:4, 2 Timothy 3:16 Psalms 119:18,

 

 

Jesus Christ is the grand theme of the book we call the Bible and for our good is its design. The glory of God is at its conclusion. Jude 25 In its pages, we find paradise restored, heaven opened, and hell is forever destroyed.

 

 

The above scriptures which we just read say that the Bible is supernatural in its origin and eternal in its duration.  It is inexpressible in its value, infinite in scope, infallible in its authority and in its power, permanent in its application, and totally inspired by God.   All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

 

 

The Bible is made available to all who seek and search for God.

 

 

It is at the final judgment that all who die that are not born again by obeying the Gospel of Jesus Christ, must stand before God and give an account of their lives. Hebrews 9:27 It is then that they face the second death. Revelation 20:14 

 

 

The Bible is a book of choice. Deuteronomy 30:19 Free will is given to all to make that choice.

 

 

Not choosing means you accept the consequence; your decision involves eternal life. Deuteronomy 30:191 John 2:25 speaks of the great promise.

 

 

Making a choice is the greatest of all responsibilities. It is in the Word of God that the Bible reveals an alternative for choosing life or death. 1 John 2:25

 

 

Only through the Gospel of Jesus Christ are we given the option of salvation.

 

 

In the beginning, it was disobedience that brought sin and death into our world. Romans 5:12

 

 

It is only through obedience that whosoever believes and obeys the Gospel can be saved. Jesus said you MUST be born again to enter the Kingdom of God. John 3:3,5,7.

 

 

Yes, you MUST do something. Acts 2:37-39, 41, James 1:22, 2:14,17, John 3:3, 5 & 7, 3, James 1:22, James 2:14 & 17,

 

 

The Bible never changes it is the same today, yesterday, and forever. Hebrews 13:8

 

 

What God has said and requires, He has said, and He requires forever.

 

 

The Bible condemns all who add to or take away from its contents. Revelation 22:18-19

 

 

This book continues to challenge each new generation. Revelation 22:18-9,

 

 

It is the travellers map, the pilgrim’s staff, the pilot’s compass, the soldier’s sword, and the Christian’s Charter.

 

 

  • Read it to be wise;

 

  • believe it to be safe;

 

  • practice it to be set apart.

 

 

When you read it, read it slowly, frequently, and prayerfully.

 

 

Let it fill your memory, rule your heart, and guide your feet. Psalms 119:105

 

 

Remember, every one of us have a destiny with Death. Hebrews 9:27, Ecclesiastes 9:5 & 7:2
