The Book
How is it that we have been given Gods Word and can so easily ignore it? How is it that in some parts of the world people are sacrificing their lives to spread the Word of God but in our cozy country we can let is collect dust on the night stand? Why do we have over 20 English translations that we ignore while nations around the world wait for a first translation.
I don’t understand how we start out as a nation teaching our children to read just for the purpose of reading the Bible and slowly become a nation of non-readers. A slow progression has taken us from readers of the Bible to ignorers of it.
Gods word is flawless (Proverbs 30:5) , living and active (Hebrews 4:12); he has given it to us as a way to learn about who He is and why we are here. Yet many of us continue to run around looking for answers that we could so easily find if we would simply look.
He created us with a purpose and that purpose is clearly stated in the Bible if we would just take the time to read it and get to know our Creator.
