Thy Testimonies are wonderful: therefore doth my soul keep them. The entrance of Thy Words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple. I opened my mouth, and panted: for I longed for Thy Commandments. Look Thou upon me, and be merciful unto me, as Thou usest to do unto those that love Thy Name. Order my steps in Thy Word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me. Deliver me from the oppression of man: so will I keep Thy Precepts. Make Thy face to shine upon Thy servant; and teach me Thy Statutes. Rivers of waters run down mine eyes, because they keep not Thy law. (Psalms 119:129-136)
How wonderful is the Word of GOD. It is a Light to our path, Life to those that partake its Words, the Law to our hearts, and Liberty to those that hear and obey.
To those of us who know GOD through the power of His resurrection, His Holy Word is both a warning, and a comfort. A warning because it continues to show us our sIn, and to show us His Judgments. A comfort because it reminds us of His grace even in times of trouble, and His continued presence from the moment of our Salvation unto our eternal rest with Him.
It is also a warning to those without, that we are to take to them, not just to tell those that don't know GOD the nice parts, with a false comfort and a false hope, but to take the whole Word to the whole world as GOD gives us utterance and opportunity. It is not an option, it is a command to take the Gospel of Jesus Christ to this lost and dying world.
We must warn them that sIn keeps us from GOD. Though GOD is everywhere, only those in right relationship with Him through faith in His finished and perfect work on the Cross of Calvary have eternal life and forgiveness that leads to eternal life.
For GOD is not willing that any should perish, but that all would come to repentance and the knowledge of the Truth. The Truth of GOD's Word and what He tells us about Him, and that Jesus loves you and wants to establish a covenant relationship with you that is real and personal. Surrender to Him on His terms and be born again, and He will give you a brand new life that is abundant and everlasting. Let His perfect Word engrafted into your heart and mind deliver you from your sIn and give you comfort and peace with and through Jesus Christ today.
In Christ,
