“If the Bible is considered merely to contain the Word of God, rather than actually to be in toto the Word of God, there is naturally a decreased sense of responsibility to study its text minutely, or to systematize its theology, or authoritatively to declare its message.” –Merrill F. Unger Principles of Expository Preaching
What you believe about the Holy Scriptures, in their entirety, will or has already become for you the foundation of how you live, teach and or preach, in this life, and eternity to come.
Say that as often and in as many ways as you can.
Thanks Paul for your comment! I agree, and may we all find within us a renewed fervor when stand in the pulpit and open God’s Word so that what follows will not be something weak or incomplete nor unworthy of being from the will of God. Preach the Word!
Okay, now it’s time to say something else or say what you’ve already said again.
Yes and amen. If it were not for the Bible being the foundation of life I do not know where I would be now!
