The
Bible is book of books. The Bible is the Word of God. God speaks to us through
His words. We can learn God’s word and
His works in the Bible.
The
Bible is not a book of philosophy, although it is philosophical. Do not go to
the Bible for a scientific treatise; however, there is no discrepancy between
the ascertained facts of science and the Bible.The Bible is not a book of history, but is found to be
accurate when recording history.
The Bible was given to man from God, revealing Jesus Christ,
the Son of God, and God the Son, the only Savior. (John 14:6)
The
Bible is as high above all other books as the heavens are above the earth.
Someone has said of the Bible: “Read it to be wise; believe it to be safe; and
practice it to be right.”
The
Bible is written for all men and women on earth to make us understand God’s love
for us. By studying the Bible, one can understand ‘who is God and how to get
His help to be saved from unending misery of life and share His eternal life.
The
Bible says “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only
Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal
life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the
world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not
condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because
they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.(John 3:16-18)
Here,
we find that God understand all our misery in life cause by Sin and have mercy
on us. He loves us very much and wants to safe us from these worldly troubles.
Therefore, He sent His son Jesus Christ to so that any one who believes in Him
will not live a miserable life and shall not perish but have eternal life and
be saved through Him. Here, we also find that “but whoever does not believe
stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s
one and only Son.” This means, if anyone do not believe in His Son Jesus Christ
will be condemned. So, you must believe in Jesus.
Many persons study the Bible to get worldly knowledge and
understanding. Yes, one can learn knowledge and wisdom from the Bible, but it
is not the main purpose of God.
God bless you.
