Psalm 1:1-2
King James Version
1 Blessed is the man
that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly,
nor standeth in the way of sinners,
nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord;
and in his law doth he meditate
day and night.
What makes the Bible the authority on GOD?
A born again would know.
For we are taught by SPIRIT.
Unless, and until, we have SPIRIT in us, we won't understand Scripture.
Much less give the honor and devotion due it.
But we are born again, so we can tell you what SPIRIT taught us.
On why we can trust Scripture to be the WORD of GOD.
As born again, I stand by the INTEGRITY of the BIBLE:
Psalm 33:4
King James Version
4 For the word of the Lord is right;
and all his works are done in truth.
Psalm 33:8-9
King James Version
8 Let all the earth fear the Lord:
let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
9 For he spake, and it was done;
he commanded, and it stood fast.
Matthew 24:35
King James Version
35 Heaven and earth shall pass away,
but my words shall not pass away.
John 1:1
King James Version
1 In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God.
John 1:14
King James Version
14 And the Word was made flesh,
and dwelt among us,
(and we beheld his glory,
the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,)
full of grace and truth.
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.
Hebrews 4:12
King James Version
12 For the word of God is quick,
and powerful,
and sharper than any twoedged sword,
piercing even to the dividing asunder
of soul and spirit,
and of the joints and marrow,
and is a discerner
of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
James 3:17
King James Version
17 But the wisdom that is from above
is first pure,
then peaceable,
gentle,
and easy to be intreated,
full of mercy and good fruits,
without partiality,
and without hypocrisy.
Revelation 19:11-14
King James Version
11 And I saw heaven opened,
and behold a white horse;
and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True,
and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
12 His eyes were as a flame of fire,
and on his head were many crowns;
and he had a name written,
that no man knew, but he himself.
13 And he was clothed with a vesture
dipped in blood:
and his name is called The Word of God.
14 And the armies which were in heaven
followed him upon white horses,
clothed in fine linen,
white and clean.
By now, we know these things:
What makes SPIRIT the authority.
What makes SCRIPTURE the authority.
I listen to them, and learn from them, night and day.
But why doesn't the world listen to GOD's TRUTH?
We shall find out on the next post.
