THE LOVE LETTER

What could be more important than 'understanding' what the Creator of the universe has to say to you? If the Bible is truly God’s Word, then we should cherish it, study it, obey it, and fully trust it. 

It remains the final authority for matters of faith and morality. 

1. It reveals God's impending judgment. Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand. (Revelation 1:3)

2. It reveals God's redemptive plan. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16)

3. It reveals God's instructions for life. And he that keepeth His commandments dwelleth in Him, and He in him. And hereby we know that He abideth in us, by the Spirit which He hath given us. (1 John 5:2)

To dismiss the Bible is to dismiss God Himself.

Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of Truth. 2 Timothy 2:15

Billy Graham - The Bible is God's 'love letter' to us.

Nothing is more emblematic of a person understanding the truth of Graham's statement than a Bible that has been pored over so much that the spine is broken, the cover tattered, the pages worn.
