The
Devotional
Comment:
The Holy Bible is much more than a sacred writing or book of
religious piety of dos and don’ts. Mere human words to describe the Holy Bible
are just that! Nothing more or nothing less than mere jargon that falls far
short of the TRUTH contained in the Holy Word of GOD. For example: Explain this
with mere words if you dare. “IN THE BEGINNING GOD, CREATED THE HEAVENS AND THE
EARTH”. Genesis 1:1 – The very first ten words of the Holy Bible have never been
explained by any man. God alone has DECLARE this TRUTH. The Kingdom of God is
POWER, HOLINESS and LOVE. Paganism is just the opposite of Genesis 1:1 and
seeks to revise the Creation account in Genesis 1 through 4 with every turn of
the century since time began. Paganism fails; it failed yesterday, it failed
today and it will fail tomorrow. But do you need to guess what will not change
or fail? No, in fact in every soul of man the truth is innately resident that
God created the heavens and the earth (Romans 1:19-21) and (Hebrews 13:8). Also
see Psalm 19:1-14 which is one of my favorites.
Devotional:
The
Holy Bible is “God Breathed” and this alone makes it DIFFERENT than any other
writing. To disagree is to say that you are idolatrous. Pagans do worship, they
worship vainly in their imagination, they profess to be wise out of a darkened
heart, and thus their worship is turned from God who is “incorruptible TRUTH”
to the “corruptible worship of man” (themselves), things like birds, animals
and creeping things also; all of these things are perishable including man. Notice
if you will what Jesus has to say about His Word in Matthew 5:18. “For verily I
say unto you, “Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no
wise pass from the LAW, till all be fulfilled” KJV.
The Old Testament, (that is the Law and the Prophets as
Jesus always referred to), is not destroyed as some might like to project. Also
Jesus and the New Testament is not destroyed by His death. Jesus is risen from
the dead (1 Corinthians 15:1-11) Jesus who is God is the Living Prophet, the
only High Priest and Coming King, as Jesus Himself fulfills both the Old and
New Testaments. If you read the Bible you can understand this ONLY by direction
of God the Holy Spirit.
The gospels; Matthew, Mark, Luke and John are all Old
Testament teaching and reveal Jesus Christ to Israel as the Prophet. Then
beginning in Acts 1:8 through to the Revelation 3:22 Jesus is revealed as the
High Priest of His Church on earth and finally for Revelation 4:1 through
Revelation 22:21 we see Jesus as the KING over all Creation. The Book of
Hebrews helps with this by saying this – Hebrews 1:1-2 – God, who at various
times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets,
has in these last days spoken to us by His Son whom He has appointed heir of
all things, through whom also He (Jesus) made the world.
