God's Word-The Bible

   Many call it the Good Book and it is but it is more than wise sayings and good advise.  It is the Word of God and His revelation of what God is like and what His will is.  It is not a history book but archeology is proving the evidence of historical truth it contains.  The Apostle John said that he wrote his book so that we might believe.
Paul wrote: "All scripture is given by inspiration of God...."

     I love to read the Bible.  I read it daily and throughout the day. I of course would encourage anyone to read it. Those of us who are trusting in Christ's life, death and resurrection realize the Bible is alive and relevant  while speaking about:
                                              -creation
                                              -The fall of man
                                              -family
                                              -government
                                              -God's plan of Salvation
                                              -guide for relationship with Him and others
it's written in the Bible that Jesus said "You are to love God with all of your heart and your neighbor as you love yourself.

    I write about developing the community and the Bible is the blue print and guide as well as the light to accomplish this with. Maybe you  like me have discovered neighborhood improvement doesn't come
about through:
                                               -money
                                               -education
                                               -politics
                                               -landscaping
   
 You do not have to read all the statistics but take a drive in your car through the dangerous, affluent and even rural subdivisions and observe young and old, rich or poor with relational problems inside and outside of the home. The only true community transformation comes through heart transformation. Transformation the Bible tells us of and guides us to.
  The Book of Psalms says "Your word is a light to my path.." We would be shocked at the stats of "Church folk" that are living in the dark and living on what they heard years ago and never look into the living and loving word and wonder why our churches are closing by the thousands. While daily life withdraws more than we've deposited and things that are black and white are blurry and
dingy gray.

     We can't cover it all here in this space there is more elaborating next writing and we will look into the:
                                                -Authority of the Bible
                                                -Power of the Bible
                                                -Message of the Bible
     Be encourage to pick it up and look into it today. look into: Psalms, proverbs, Acts. You might be glad you did.  Maybe you have something to add.  Thanks again. More to come.
