Why is the Bible worth studying? With michigan legislative staff we discussed:
1. There is no other book like it in human history
-archeological discoveries validate its content
-there is an overwhelming volume of consistent manuscript data
-40 authors, 1500 years, different regions under different regimes, and it all completed one congruent narrative
2. It is God’s revealed Word to us
-it is what we KNOW FOR SURE God has said
-it is all breathed through Him
-it is the written record of His Words to His people throughout the ages
3. It is how we know God and how to be in union with Him.
-this fits right into where we are going with our study in John. The purpose statement of John is John 20:30 “These are written that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God, and that believing you might have life through His name”
-John includes in his work multiple deity claims, multiple signs proving deity, and some of the clearest salvation passages in all of history.
A book with those credentials is definitely worth studying! Pray for God to grow our influence at the Capitol!
