It is what it is!

Revelation 22 (The Message)

 ^18-19I give fair warning to all who hear the words of the prophecy of this book: If you add to the words of this prophecy, God will add to your life the disasters written in this book; if you subtract from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will subtract your part from the Tree of Life and the Holy City that are written in this book.
 ²⁰He who testifies to all these things says it again: "I'm on my way! I'll be there soon!"
   Yes! Come, Master Jesus!
 ²¹The grace of the Master Jesus be with all of you. Oh, Yes!


The Bible is an amazing book. Th Book of Revelation is an amazing book! Do you know how the Book of Revelation begins?

Revelation 1:1 "The revelation from Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants what must soon take place."

This book is from God. It says it, so it is! When we get to the end of the book we are given a warning not to add or subtract from what is written here. There is always a lot of controversy about this book. Are we supposed to take it literally or is there some hidden message to be read into it? Really, the entire Bible has been subject to those same questions. After these last 4 months you have gotten to know me. I'm not a biblical scholar by any means. I am a faithful follower of Jesus Christ as the one and only Son of God. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit, Born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, crucified, dead, and buried. On the 3rd day he rose from the Dead, ascended into Heaven, and sits at the right hand of God. He is coming again.  I believe in the truth that is written in the book of Revelation, literally. I don't think you can take part of the Bible as being true, literally, and then say another part is not. The Bible is God inspired and God spoken. 

2 Timothy 3 (New International Version).....¹⁵ and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. ¹⁶ All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, ¹⁷ so that the servant of God^[a] may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

The Bible is critical in our faith. You can't believe in my God and not believe in the Bible. People can question it historically. People can questions it's timeline. People can question the events. They are not followers of my God. The Bible is True, it is Relevant to our Lives today and it is the inspired Word of God. It is what it is! Period! So I will simplify Faith to one thing. Do you believe the Bible? If you do, then you should be exploring the word of the creator of our universe. If you believe and call yourself a christian, how could you not have the desire to find out what God has to say. If you don't you're not a follower of God, you're in serious trouble.

Dear Lord, Thank you for thinking so much of us that you inspired the Bible. You are so great and awesome and I love to read about how you have cared for us throughout the history of this planet. I love that we can hear your voice through this wonderful book. Thank You Lord. Thank You! Amen!
