As Christians, the Bible, along with God’s Holy Spirit, is to be our guide for life. Daily we need to search God’s truth for how to live, as well as how to become more and more like Christ. Let’s not forget though that the Bible also teaches us Who God is; it helps us know God! God’s Word is “living and active.”
Hebrews 4:12 declares –
“For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart.” NASB
2 Timothy 3:16-17 goes on to say –
“All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work.” NASB
With words like “living”, “active”, “inspired”, “profitable”… the Bible is anything but boring! It is the only book that can actively cause change in our lives!
When was the last time you sat down and enjoyed studying your Bible? Or has your class started yawning as they open up God’s Word? Too many times we have in our mind that studying the Bible has to be boring (not that any of us would admit that to another Christian!). It’s not meant to be though!
