KNOW YOUR BIBLE

-
All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness. so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
I Timothy 3:16,17

The Bible (word derived from Koine Greek τὰ βιβλία, tà biblía, "the books” or “the scrolls”). The word is derived from the ancient city of Byblos, which was the official supplier of paper products to the ancient world
Bible is not just a book but it’s THE BOOK. It’s the Book of books. It’s a book on which you can build your life. It is composed of 66 books by 40 different writers(authors) over 1,500 years. 
But what makes it unique is that it has one consistent storyline running all the way through, and it has just one ultimate author—God. 
The Bible is the inspired Word of God and is His revelation to all people of Himself and His plan of salvation

The story is about God’s plan to rescue men and women from the devastating results of the Fall, a plan that was conceived in eternity, revealed through the prophets, and carried out by the Son of God, Jesus Christ. 
Jesus is the central character in the Bible—the whole book is really about Him.
Jesus was concealed in old testament and he was reveled in the new testament. The Old Testament right from the book of genesis predicts His coming and sets the stage for His entrance into the world. The New Testament describes His coming and His work to bring salvation to this sinful world. 

 Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away. Matt 24:35

NEW BEGINNING

As children, many of us would have learned about the amazing transformation of a caterpillar into a beautiful butterfly. The ability of the caterpillar is limited. They can only crawl and not fly. Caterpillar are stubby, fleshy and some are hairy. Your life can be like a caterpillar today. But the Lord God who created us, can transform our life and make us be a blessing to so many people around us. All we must do is submit our self in God’s hands . To become a butterfly, the caterpillar must fall apart completely, decompose down to its very essence, and literally dies. In the same way for us to go to the next level, there are certain things in us that should die, in other words our flesh must die. The Bible tells us in Galatians 5:16 “So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.” Some of the things that are needed to be put to death are mentioned in the Bible. Colossians 3: 5-10 says “Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly natur

LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS

Just imagine this world without light: no sun, moon, stars or any lamps, candles or torchlight. We know that we cannot do anything that is productive, good or right when it is dark, nor do we like to live in the darkness. We can see the physical darkness with our human eyes and there is a spiritual darkness too. Lighting a lamp or candle will get rid of the darkness. But have you ever thought how to get rid of the spiritual darkness? The answer for this is JESUS . Around 4 B.C there lived a man named JESUS: ·        He was fully God and fully man. ·        He was with God from the beginning (before the creation/foundation of the world). ·        All things were made through him. ·        He was conceived by the Holy Spirit (Spirit of God) and born of a virgin. ·        He is the one and only begotten SON OF GOD. He lived on this earth for about 33 and a half years. When He walked on this earth, He spoke these words, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in dark
