Bible = Truth!

For Friday, July 26, 2024:

2 Peter 1:19 TLB: “We have seen and proved that what the prophets said came true. You will do well to pay close attention to everything they have written, for, like lights shining into dark corners, their words help us to understand many things that otherwise would be dark and difficult. But when you consider the wonderful truth of the prophets’ words, then the light will dawn in your souls and Christ the Morning Star will shine in your hearts.”

Once again, eyewitness accounts reinforce our faith, faith being confidence in an eyewitness’ testimony. The Bible never contradicts itself, and our “High View” of the Bible teaches that every word is God-inspired and truthful. Therefore the prophets of old can speak of the second coming of Jesus, and it all fits together. The testimonies all line up, confirming the same event, the fact that Christ WILL come again! We can count on it!

People studying philosophy spend a lot of time trying to figure out God, Jesus and the created world. They seek to answer questions like, “Who am I,” “What is my purpose?,” and, “Why am I here?” The answers are found in the Bible, our handbook for life. So what we need to build up is our confidence in the testimony of eyewitnesses and those to whom God spoke directly, prophets.

Pray for an increase in faith!
