Recommended: Importance of bible to many

Holy Scripture, can be referred to as many fixations. It teaches us the way of the Lord, the way of the light and all of the promises of the Lord. It teaches us truth, strength and it open our eyes. I believe that the Scripture is a part of our relationship with God. If we don’t understand his Word then we do not understand him. Holy Scripture is the Word of the Lord, the amour of God and the source of wisdom we need. I believe it’s the message that God wants us all to have. “And we also thank God continually because, when you received the word of God, which you heard from us, you accepted it not as human word, but as it actually is, the word of God, which is actually is, the word of God, which is indeed at work in you who believe.” (1 Thessalonians 2:13) Learning and knowing the Bible makes us …show more content…

“All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness” (2 Timothy 3:16) The word of God is all the same as him. The word is truthful, a dependable authority and a source of strength. Therefore, when I say that the word is God, it is also means it is like him. “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” (John 1:1) The word of God is true, knowing and living forever. “The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.” (John 1:14) It holds many promises and praises to God. It teaches us to be strong and feeds what is upright. “Let us discern for ourselves what is right; let us learn together what is good.” (Job 34:4) The word is the teaching that makes us equipped. Each day a scripture will encourage you, refresh your perspective and help you focus your thoughts on God. I believe the word of God is our teacher, trainer and so much more. “I give you sound learning, so do not forsake my teachings.” (Proverbs

    704 Words  | 2 Pages

    The Holy Bible is the main essence of Christianity especially the New Testament. There are many parables and lesson learned in the Gospels in the New Testament. In the bible there is a Golden Rule found in (Matthew 7:12) which is, “So whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets.” Jesus also touches on the importance of the Golden Rule throughout the bible. In Wicca there is such a Law that is very similar to the Christian Golden Rule called The Threefold Law. The Threefold Law is a cause and effect concept or whatever you do to others it will be done to you. (Dragonsong) So essentially the way an individual treats another should be reflected on how they want to be treated. For Wiccans

  • Analysis Of Walter Brueggemann's 'Biblical Authority'

    850 Words  | 2 Pages

    The Bible is read and interpreted by many people all over the world. Regardless, no one knows the absolute truth behind scripture. Walter Brueggemann, professor of Old Testament, wrote “Biblical Authority” to help people understand what he describes as six different parts that make up the foundation to ones understanding of scripture. He defines these six features as being: inherency, interpretation, imagination, ideology, inspiration, and importance. As Brueggemann explains each individual part, it is easy to see that they are all interconnected because no one can practice one facet without involuntarily practicing at least one other part.

  • The Bible: The Story Of Redemption In The Bible

    Spanning fifteen hundred years with over 30,700 manuscripts, extensive archaeological evidence and 2000 prophecies that have been fulfilled, the Bible is God 's word to us. (Yohn, 2013). In the Bible, the Father is essentially giving us a picture of the history of the world and is also leading us to a place where we must make a decision that involves whether we choose to accept his son or reject him and remain guilty. Additionally, the Word of God tells us what happened that caused this breach between us and God, the result of this and how God has rectified it through the blood of his son. In fact, from the beginning of the Bible (written 1400 B.C.) to the last book (A.D. 96), God is showing us why we need Jesus and how to find him. Just as a plant’s root system propagates and occupies the pot that encloses it, Jesus permeates the entire Bible. Therefore, the motif of the Bible is the story of the redemption of mankind and it all points to Jesus as the messiah and savior who secures this for all.

  • The Bible: The Story Of God In The Bible

    1032 Words  | 3 Pages

    The biblical narrative is one that is still going on to this day. The biblical narrative tells the story of God and how he reveals himself to us. Rhodes points out that “God comes to each through a historical event or series of events” (2). It is in this way that God reveals himself to us and this maintains the relevance of the biblical narrative in our lives. God reveals himself through formative stories in the bible such as Creation, Adam and Eve, the Fall of Man, The Flood, God’s Covenant with Noah, and the Tower of Babel. From the very beginning of the biblical narrative we see that God relates to us on a personal level. He created us, he formed us, he created the world in which we live, and he has been an active participant in the narrative since before it began.

    Scripture holds a prominent role in the sermon. In 2 Timothy 4:2, it states to “preach the word in season and out of season”. The Greek word for preach is ‘Kerusso’. It means to be a herald (proclaim) and to preach (announce) a message publicly and with conviction (persuasion). In this verse, Paul gave Timothy and the others ministers a charge and a commission to preach the Word. In order to be an effective preacher, the Word of God must be the foundation. In 2 Timothy 3:16, it states that “All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness”. In other words, the Word of God was written by man, God-breathed and divinely inspired. The Scripture is important because it creates an argument or appeal that is persuading the audience to do something. The substance of our preaching must come from the Bible because the Bible comes from God. As messenger and ambassadors of God, we are obligated to speak the mind and thoughts of God.

    The bible is what helps keeps our faith alive as it contains a rich amount of history that tells us of God’s revelation and the ways how our faith works. Although the bible contains numerous works of different people, it is still a work of God that helps our faith remain constant and grow, as everything written was under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. In some way, I was able to understand the value also of the other books, as before I did not really take interest of the other books included bible, aside from the likes of the Gospels, Genesis, Exodus, Psalms, and Proverbs. Nevertheless, I realized that the books are all part of the bible as each has a purpose to serve and stands as a testament to the infidelity of humanity, and of God’s unfailing love for
