The message was very good and on how the Bible can change your life. He opened his message with the question, "Are there some people that the Bible will not change?" If you answer quickly, without thinking much about it, you think, "No, the Bible changes everyone." The correct answer is the opposite.
The Bible will only change and affect people if they allow it to. God created man, with the ability to think. Man has ability to make choices. Some people have made the choice that they do not want to believe in God or trust in His word.
The Word is powerful and does change people, if they know what the scriptures teach and let it lead their life. He talked about people who read the Bible and apply it in their life. How much time do we actually spend in meditating on the Bible? Reading and meditating are two different things.
Even under the Old Law, people were instructed to meditate.
Joshua 1:8---- This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.
How much more today, we should want to understand the teachings of Christ.
So, which Bible looks like my Bible?
To be able to meditate, think or apply it.......we need to read it.
Again, just something for us to think or meditate on.
