The word still works!!!
It seems that now days there is a decreased appetite for the word in our community.
Even with the advent of various bible versions and translations many people still
view the bible as something they can not really understand. Some even view the
bible as a book that has not modern day relevance. However, I'd have to conclude
that if God is eternal why would he author a book that is just relevant for one
period in history. I do not believe that the bible, the word of God was only
good for biblical times but for all times. Paul says that in 2 Timothy 3:16 that
"All scripture is given by the inspiration of God and is profitable for
doctrine, reproof, correction and instruction in righteousness." This means
that the word works. People can still understand the word and the word can still
change people's lives. Why not keep a steady diet of the word of God in your
life daily. It still strengthens, it still saves... it still works. There are
even teachers and preachers of the word that rely more on motivational anecdotes
than the word. The word still works though!! And lives can still be changed!!
