Malgré le fait, that the Bible is the most sold and ‘read’ book in the world, the Bibel is also the most controversial Book and attacked Book in the world. There are many countries that are afraid of the Bible and therefore have forbidden Bibles. Ce n'est pas surprenant, since the Bible is the only Book in the world, wherein God reveals Himself and the truth by His words. The Bible is so powerful that it divides soul and spirit and changes lives. But is the Bible still considered as the true and eternal Word of God and do Christians spend time in the Bible? Is the Bible the center and the highest authority in their lives? Do believers raise their children daily in the Word? Is the Bible still compelling and relevant to Christians or do the hearts of Christians go out to other books and is the Bible faded into the background or even completely disappeared from their lives?
The sons of God spent time in the Bible; la Parole de Dieu
Voyant que vous avez purifié vos âmes en obéissant à la vérité par l'Esprit pour un amour sincère des frères, veillez à vous aimer avec ferveur d'un cœur pur: Être né de nouveau, pas de graine corruptible, mais d'incorruptible, par la parole de Dieu, which liveth and abideth for ever (1 Pierre 1:22-23)
As soon as a person becomes born again, which means that the flesh has died and the spirit is raised from the dead in Christ, and the person becomes a new creation, the person shall long to spend time in the Bible and search the Scriptures and feed themselves with the words of God. Parce que l’Esprit Saint, Who abides in the new creation, draws the new creation to the Word of God and desires to be in unity with Jesus Christ; le mot, and the Father.
Tout comme Jésus, le Fils de Dieu, withdrew Himself to spend time with the Father, ceux, who are born of God and belong to Him shall also withdraw themselves to spend time with Jesus Christ and the Father in the Word and in prayer (Lire aussi: La vie de prière secrète du croyant).
Et par là nous savons que nous le connaissons, si nous gardons ses commandements. Celui qui dit, Je le connais, and keepeth not His commandments, est un menteur, Et la vérité n’est pas en lui. But whoso keepeth His word, en lui est vraiment parfait l’amour de Dieu: hereby know we that we are in Him. He that saith he abideth in Him ought himself also so to walk, even as He walked (1 John 2:3-6)
The Bible is the Word of God and possesses the truth. Through the Bible, you shall get to know the real Jesus Christ and the will of God and His Kingdom.
The more time you spend in the Bible, the better you shall get to know God and His will. And by believing, obeying, and doing the words of God, you shall walk as Jesus Christ in the will of God (Lire aussi: Quel est le but de la Parole de Dieu dans la vie des gens ??).
The Bible should be the highest authority in the lives of the sons of God
Et lui (Jésus) answered and said unto them, My mother and My brethren are these which hear the word of God, et fais-le (Luc 8:21)
But He (Jésus) dit, Ouais plutôt, Bienheureux sont ceux qui entendent la parole de Dieu, et garde-le (Luc 11:28)
The Bible is the power of God and should be the highest authority in the lives of every born-again Christian, who has become a son of God. Malheureusement, Ce n’est pas toujours le cas.
Many Christians don’t consider the words of God as credible, compelling, and relevant, but consider the words of God as outdated, dusty, and old-fashioned that don’t fit in today’s society. À cause de ça, the words of God are no longer believed, obeyed, and applied but are adjusted, changé, and/or rejected.
The ruler of this world doesn’t want people to find out the truth and discover the lies of darkness in which many people live, and therefore he adjusts and corrupts the words of God very subtle through modern Bible translations and false teachings of man, and besides that he keeps the people away from the truth and the Kingdom of God by keeping them away from the Bible; la Parole de Dieu (Lire aussi: Une nouvelle traduction de la Bible; the GEB et How Jesus is thrown out the church).
He tempts, seduces, and entertains people with the things of this world (Lire aussi: Laissez-moi vous divertir!)
Ceux, who are born again and walk after the Spirit shall spend time in the Word and consider the Bible as the truth. To them, the Bible is compelling and relevant and the highest authority in their lives.
Cependant, ceux, who are not born again and don’t have the Spirit of God, but the spirit of the world, shall not long to be with Jesus and the Father and spend time in the light of the Word, but they shall rather spend time in the light of the world; the light of their phone, télévision, (jeu)ordinateur, etc..
La Bible est-elle toujours convaincante et pertinente pour les chrétiens ??
For the Word of God is quick, et puissant, et plus tranchant que n'importe quelle épée à deux tranchants, perçant jusqu'à diviser l'âme et l'esprit, et des articulations et de la moelle, et est un discerneur des pensées et des intentions du cœur (Hébreux 4:12)
But Jesus answered and said, Il est écrit, L'homme ne vivra pas seulement de pain, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God (Matthieu 4:4)
Many Christians don’t consider the Bible a compelling spiritual Book, which contains the life of God and reveals the will of God and is relevant and needed for the spiritual man to grow up into a mature son of God and to stand against all the temptations and wiles of the devil.
They don’t consider the Bible as the Sword of the Spirit and don’t know how the handle the Sword of the Spirit in the ongoing spiritual battle.
Plutôt, they walk in pride by thinking, that they know the Bible after reading the Bible so many times.
But as long as someone doesn’t walk and lives as a mature son of God in the will of God, as Jesus walked in the will of the Father, someone doesn’t know the Bible completely
You can have a lot of head knowledge of the Bible, but head knowledge doesn’t do anything with a person, except that it puffs up a person and exalt himself above others.
You don’t enter the Kingdom of God by having head knowledge of the Bible, even though many people think they do. But that’s because, despite their head knowledge, they don’t know the Word experientially nor have the Word abiding in their heart.
And so many Christians are misled and lead defeated lives and are controlled by the spirit of the world.
They rather feed themselves with the knowledge and wisdom of the world and rather listen to what ‘learned’ people have to say and consider their words as the truth and walk by faith according to their words.
Is there a difference between believers and unbelievers?
Because they believe the words of the world above the words of God, and because the words of the world that correspond with the will of the flesh, are the highest authority in their lives there is hardly any difference between people, who say to believe and call themselves Christians and unbelievers.
Their minds, words, and opinions hardly differ from each other, except that one says to believe that God exists and believes in Jesus Christ and the other doesn’t. But their walk, works and life are many times identical, since they walk after the flesh and are led by the same spirit that reigns in the flesh (Lire aussi: Si les chrétiens vivent comme le monde, De quoi le monde devrait-il se repentir ??).
Most Christians are carnal and are led by the spirit of the world, tout comme les incroyants. They walk after the flesh and are led by their feelings and what happens in the natural realm. They are dependent upon situations, the surrounding, et les gens, tout comme le monde. Their outside world determines how they feel and determines their state. En bref, their lives and well-being depend upon external factors in the natural realm.
They follow the same path as the world and read all kinds of books, written by man, instead of the Bible and engage in various teachings, méthodes, and technics that often derive from philosophies of man and other religions that are popular in the world, whereby the carnal man is strengthened and the spiritual man weakens. Through all this carnal knowledge they defile themselves and enter sideways, which eventually leads to the abyss.
The devil wants to keep you ignorant
Alors la foi vient en entendant, et l’écoute par la Parole de Dieu (Romains 10:17)
Le diable, Qui est le chef du monde, shall do anything to keep the people away from the Bible and eliminate the Bible from people’s lives, because the devil knows the power of the Word.
Without the Bible and the renewing of the mind with the Word of God, man shall never get to know the will of God and shall never find out the Truth, and shall never walk by faith in the will of God and that’s exactly what the devil wants (Lire aussi: Le peuple de Dieu est-il détruit par manque de connaissance?)
