"Therefore I
esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right; and I hate every
false way." Psalm 119:128
How do you feel about the
Word of God? That may seem like a strange question but if we don't think
correctly about it we will always be lacking in the area of truth and an open
target for deception.
Do you accept it as the
truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth? Do you doubt that it is
inerrant? Do you believe certain parts of it but not others? Do you believe
that it is the infallible Word of God given to us by Him? Do you believe that
it is the only truth and everything else that is contrary is a lie? Do you
believe that it is absolute truth? Do you believe you should be following
it?
How do you feel about
teachings, opinions and philosophies that are contrary to its teachings? Do you
believe there is room for them both- the Word of God and the other? Do you
believe that it is all right to compromise its teachings in certain situations?
Do you believe the Word of God is just one of many books of
truth?
If you question the validity
of the Word of God and do not put your trust in it as The Truth, you will always
struggle and live your life in confusion. You will never have a firm foundation
to stand upon. You will be tossed around with every wind of doctrine like an
unanchored ship in a storm. You will be like a foolish man who builds his house
upon the sand.
If you are confused, if you
are struggling, if you are uncertain concerning the absolute fact that the Word
of God is all truth and the only true source of truth, then it is time that you
settle it in your own heart so that you can live your life like a wise man who
built his house upon a rock.
Have a great day. How do
you feel about the Word of God?
