Do you read biographies? You can find the stories of many famous and historic people in bookstores and libraries.
I heard an interesting description of the Book of John in the Bible, calling it, “the fourth biography of Jesus Christ.”
Though we may not typically think of it this way, the gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John are biographies of Jesus Christ.
The final two verses in, John 21:24-25 write, “This is the disciple who testifies to these things and who wrote them down. We know that his testimony is true. Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I suppose that even the whole world would not have room for the books that would be written.”
The Bible is part, history book, part biography, and part instruction book, inspired by God to bring us to Jesus. Paul tells us in Romans 10:17, “So faith comes from hearing, that is, hearing the Good News about Christ”
Dear Lord, How wonderful it is to have the Bible, your path to hearing the Good News of Salvation. Help us never forget that the Bible is Your words, written by men. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
Amen! The Bible! The greatest book ever written or will ever be written. The # 1 best seller of all time and there’s a reason for that. It’s not just any old book. It’s a book or love, hope and righteousness. A book of wisdom, faith, redemption and peace. It’s also a book of judgement. Gods judgement on all who disobey Him.
I had my Bible on a shelf for years collecting dust. Shameful!
Now I love my Bible. I love the word of God. To me it’s a consuming fire. I’ve read it many times and it’s still fresh oil. It’s suppose to be that way because it’s not just any ole book. It’s “The Book”!
Heaven and earth shall pass away but “My Word” will “Never Pass Away”. Matthew 24:35
Amen!
Read the word of God and become everything you were meant to be. To God be the glory.
Amen!
