The
Most Important Thing...
If there is an all powerful Creator, then
his will for our life is the
most important bit of knowledge that anyone could have. If you believe
in the God of the Bible -- and I feel like you do or you would not be
reading this page -- then you know that the Bible contains God's will for
man.
Everything
written in the pages of the Bible was put there because God wanted
it there so that we would have the knowledge of how to have a proper
relationship with him.
There is no other place you can find his will. The men who
wrote the Bible wrote as the Holy Spirit moved them. All other man-made books or creeds have one major flaw...they
are written by man, and when man writes, he writes what he feels
is right.
But God's thinking is different. The point is simple: pleasing God has to be done on
his
terms, not ours. Therefore, the Bible is the only reliable source of
instruction to righteousness.
It is also
the only one needed. The Holy Spirit guided the apostles into
all truth. When the Scriptures were completed, they alone were able to
make complete. Nothing is needed. There is no need for an additional statement of doctrine or creed. And no
need for what is sometimes advertised as “another testament of Jesus
Christ.” These may contain good ideas and concepts, but they may also
include errors.
Here are
four facts concerning the church of Christ.
