2 Timothy 3:15
King James Version
15 And that from a child
thou hast known the holy scriptures,
which are able to make thee wise unto salvation
through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
Many moons ago, the HOLY SPIRIT led me to these words:
"That all men may know the BIBLE,
and live by it."
Very clearly imprinted upon my mind, I wrote it down.
It has become the sub-title of this blog since.
SPIRIT's instructions were clear:
1. That all men
2. may KNOW the Bible.
3. And LIVE by it.
The Bible is to be our GUIDE book.
Our RULE book.
Our spiritual COMPASS.
The WORD of GOD must be our go-to.
For five very important reasons.
FIRST, these are the last days.
2 Timothy 3:1
King James Version
3 This know also,
that in the last days
perilous times shall come.
SECOND, man's full of sin.
2 Timothy 3:2-9
King James Version
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves,
covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers,
disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection,
trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce,
despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded,
lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness,
but denying the power thereof:
from such turn away.
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses,
and lead captive silly women laden with sins,
led away with divers lusts,
7 Ever learning,
and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses,
so do these also resist the truth:
men of corrupt minds,
reprobate concerning the faith.
9 But they shall proceed no further:
for their folly shall be manifest unto all men,
as their's also was.
THIRD, the Bible was inspired by GOD.
2 Timothy 3:16-17
King James Version
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God,
and is profitable for doctrine,
for reproof,
for correction,
for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect,
thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
FOURTH, the Rapture can happen any moment God chooses.
Matthew 24:40-42
King James Version
40 Then shall two be in the field;
the one shall be taken,
and the other left.
41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill;
the one shall be taken,
and the other left.
42 Watch therefore:
for ye know not
what hour your Lord doth come.
FIFTH, Jesus commanded we repent.
Mark 1:15
King James Version
15 And saying,
The time is fulfilled,
and the kingdom of God is at hand:
repent ye,
and believe the gospel.
To understand Scripture, you MUST become BORN AGAIN.
Only by being born again, will Scripture become clear.
Only by being born again, will you start living Scripture.
For, the HOLY SPIRIT of GOD will teach you about JESUS.
All will be made clear.
And you can start living by the BIBLE's truth.
Happy, content, and secure, in GOD's WORD.
Awaiting the Lord's soon return.
Which can happen ANY moment GOD chooses.
Matthew 24:44
King James Version
44 Therefore be ye also ready:
for in such an hour as ye think not
the Son of man cometh.
