Seek Ye First: The Bible Talk Continued

 As I was reading the Bible, I got this thought and it is, just like the news I don't like, I don't like people to analyze what the Bible says and then tell me what they think of it. This thought/Idea is that I want to read it for myself and see what God has for me. this doesn't mean that I don't have to go to church to hear messages or teaching, it just means I don't like when people analyze and tell me what to think in or about the Bible. 

You can read a thousand books on the bible but are you reading His word or the words of others and what they think? Are you reading their books, so your vision is skewed of the Bible? Are the ideas you are reading not of the Bible but of what some think they are in a book you read? Is the analyzing saying something that isn't there or going out of context just to get a point across? these are great questions to think about when you read other books than the bible and I am not saying to read them but what I am saying be careful where you get the information you are reading on the bible for it may not be accurate or right information skewed one way or another.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:1. The words of the Bible are the words of God any other book on the subject is of man and may be given to a said person by God, but it is not God's word. Seek Ye first His word, Just like Matthew says in 6:33 we are to first seek Ye His Kingdom, let us seek first that by seeking first his word as well. All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness. All scripture is that of God and is good for teaching, reproof, correction, and training in righteousness not of Man or what Man thinks but by God alone. 21 For no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit. 2 Peter 1:21. We did not produce the things of the Bible, the Bible was, and all the prophecy was given and was created by God. So, the word is God's and is and was and will be from and Be God's, so should we seek His word Not the words of man and what man thinks but God and His word alone. 

12 For the word of God is living, and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and quick to discern the thoughts and intents of the heart. Hebrews 4:12 The word of the Lord is living and is active but the words of man will one day pass away but the word of the Lord will remain.  Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal. The word of man can rust away just like the treasure of the earth, but the word of the Lord cannot rust or be taken away, it is living and will keep on living for the rest of the days and will be active. All the things of this earth and of man will pass away but the word of the Lord will not pass away it will remain forever.

12 For the word of God is living, and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and quick to discern the thoughts and intents of the heart. Hebrews 4:12 


Have a blessed day!!!!
