THE BIBLE

GOD SAYS

The Bible is the Written Word of GOD to man. It is one of theways GOD reveals Himself and His

will to us. It is a written account of His will. All of our

Christianity is based upon what we learn from

the Bible.

IS WHAT


3/27

THE BIBLE

Is Truth.

The Bible is the book that contains GODs Truth. GOD told (inspired) the

writers what they should include in the Bible. No one can interpret the Bible

without the aid of the Holy Spirit.

God Told Men What to

WriteIn The

Holy Bible

II Peter 1: 20,21

John 17:17


4/27

John 17: 17

Sanctify them (Christians) bythe Truth; Your word is Truth.


5/27

II Peter 1: 20 21

Above all, you must understand that

no prophecy of Scripture came aboutby the prophets own interpretation.

For prophecy never had its origin in

the will of man, but men spoke fromGod as they were carried along bythe Holy Spirit.

In other words, men did not make up whatthey wrote in the Bible. They were inspiredby Gods Holy Spirit what to write. The same

Holy Spirit in the Christian interprets the Bible


6/27

What Is Truth?

Truth stands whether or not you agree with it or understand it. Amajority will not determine truth. Opinions or situations will not alter

truth. GOD has established absolute truth by way of physical and

spiritual laws that can be depended upon. They never change!

Truth is Whats

Really

There!

A Testament Is A

Contract or Covenant

The Bible Has An Old

Testament and A NewTestament

God has made a contract with Christians; IF YOU WILL OBEY, THEN I

WILL BE YOUR GOD. Fundamental to Christianity is our willingness to

OBEY GOD. Too many Christians try to live good lives apart from GOD!!

John 15:5


10/27

John 15: 5

I am the Vine; you are the branches.If a man remains in me and I in him,

he will bear much fruit, apart fromme you can do nothing.

Jesus is the sourceof Life The Vine

You can be aproductive Christian by

remaining in Christ

Or you can do the bestyou can without Christ

Nothing (Dead Works)


11/27

A guilty Old Testament Israelite that sinned before God must offer a sacrificial

offering for his sins, in the way that God had appointed.1. The sinner goes out to his fields and selects a lamb, or a young calf, to be

his sacrificial offering.

2. He brings his sacrifice to the priest, and the priest inspects it, to be sure

that it is a perfect sacrifice, suitable for atonement.

3. The guilty man then lays his hands upon the animals head.4. Then the sacrificial animal is slain. The priest takes his blood and

sprinkles it upon the altar that is by the door of the tabernacle.All those elaborate ceremonies and sacrifices of the

Old Testament were designed by God to point men

to Christ, the true sacrifice for sin.

Jesus Speaking in the Book of Luke

The way to happiness is Obedience to God. People go through life seeking happiness in

many different ways. There is only ONE WAY to eternal happiness. Seek GODs direct

word rather than council from men. A DAILY habit of prayer and Bible study is

absolutely necessary.

Luke 11:28

Jesus replied, Blessed rather are thosewho hear the word of God and obey it.
