A Book Unlike Any Other
For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is God's power for salvation
to everyone who believes.
ROMANS 1:16 HCSB
The Bible can be a powerful tool for defeating stress. George Mueller
observed, "The vigor of our spiritual lives will be in exact proportion to the
place
held by the Bible in our lives and in our thoughts." As Christians, we are
called upon to study God's Holy Word and then apply it to our lives. When we
do, we are blessed.
The Bible is a priceless gift, a tool for Christians to use as they share the
Good News of their Savior, Christ Jesus. Too many Christians, however, keep
their spiritual tool kits tightly closed and out of sight. Jonathan Edwards
advised, "Be assiduous in reading the Holy Scriptures. This is the fountain
whence all knowledge in divinity must be derived. Therefore let not this
treasure lie by you neglected." God's Holy Word is, indeed, a priceless,
one-of-a-kind
treasure. Handle it with care, but, more importantly, handle it every day.
God gives us a compass and a Book of promises and principles-the Bible-and
lets us make our decisions day by day as we sense the leading of His Spirit.
This is how we grow. ~Warren Wiersbe
I am certain that the Bible is the Word of God. Either it is or it isn't, and
either all of it is the Word of God, or we never can be sure of any of it.
It is either absolute or obsolete. If we have to start changing this verse,
toning down that, apologizing for this and making allowances for that, we might
as well give up, so we must take it as it is or leave it alone. ~Vance Havner
The instrument of our sanctification is the Word of God. The Spirit of God
brings to our minds the precepts and doctrines of truth, and applies them with
power. The truth is our sanctifier. If we do not hear or read it, we will not
grow in sanctification. C. H. Spurgeon
The Bible is the one Book to which any thoughtful man may go with any honest
question of life or destiny and find the answer of God by honest searching.
~John Ruskin
