The Bible Matters

By Rob Albright

    The Bible is God’s unique communication to all mankind. I know there are many who do not believe the Bible is from God, but those of us who “trust and obey” God’s Word, are experiencing changed lives.
    The Bible is not a book of fables. It is the truth from God (John 17:17). It is historically and archaeologically accurate and that is part of the proof that shows Divine authorship.
    Far too many say it does not matter what Jesus said or did. It does matter (John 8:24; 20:30-31). The things written in the Bible are designed to bring us to have faith (Romans 10:17) in Jesus.
    We read in the Bible how Jesus, the Son of God, died for our sins (Romans 5:8-9) and He arose from the dead for our justification (1 Corinthians 15). Since Jesus is “the way, the truth, and the life” (John 14:6), should we not listen, obey, and abide in Jesus? (Hebrews 5:8-9).
