Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the Truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently: Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the Word of GOD, which liveth and abideth for ever. For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away: But the Word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the Word which by the gospel is preached unto you. (1Pe 1:22-25)
The Word of GOD which stands forever, incorruptible and perfect, settled and established, is Truth and is profitable for Doctrine, for reproof, for correction for instruction in righteousness. GOD'S people, Holy and made righteous in Christ, are to stand on its promises, live by its precepts, share its testimonies, and proclaim its judgments. The Bible, GOD'S Holy Word is the seed for the sower and bread to the eater, it is milk to grow on and meat to digest, it is pure, holy, true, and righteous altogether for it is inspired by the Spirit of GOD, and mixed with faith brings Salvation to those that repent and Sanctification to those that obey.
Its very words are pure and trustworthy, preserved and protected, without error or mistake for they are given by the GOD who cannot fail and cannot lie, and it is a reflection of Him who has revealed Himself to us through it. Its Laws are just, its Commands are sure, and its statutes are right for they are revealed to us from our Holy GOD who wants us to know Him through its pages. Its Author is GOD, its subject is Christ and His interaction with His creation from the beginning, His people throughout history, and in judgment of those who have not trusted in Him and His finished and perfect work on the Cross of Calvary, its object is the Salvation of sinful man, that they repent of their sin and surrender to GOD on His Terms and be born again.
GOD'S Word equips those of us who are redeemed for ministry as we hear, read, study, memorize, and meditate on it, that we might serve those around us who are hurting and in need as ambassadors for Christ, taking the Word of reconciliation to this lost and dying world. His Word encourages and edifies us as we love one another with an unfeigned love and as He applies it, we grow in the knowledge of Him and are discipled by its teachings, adjust our thinking to His thoughts, repent from its chastisements, and learn to obey its righteous instructions. The Word of GOD, with its everlasting Gospel of Jesus Christ empowers us to go into this broken and sinful world and in the power of the Holy Spirit that is within us proclaim the Good News of forgiveness and reconciliation with the Father that those who believe in Him might have life in His Name.
For GOD is not willing that any should perish, but that all would come to repentance and the knowledge of the Truth. Jesus loves you and wants to establish a covenant relationship with you that is real and personal. Surrender to Him on His terms and He will give you a brand new life of discipleship and fellowship with Him that is abundant and everlasting. GOD calls you to trust Him and what He has already done for you to pay your sIn debt. He has provided the only way of reconciliation with GOD, forgiveness from GOD, and Salvation through Jesus Christ, the Son of GOD who is GOD the Son, to give you a new life in Christ. Turn away from yourself and your sIn and turn to Him alone for eternal Life, now and always.
In Christ,
