ARE YOU READY?
Bishop and others continually preach that Reading the Bible (excuse me, not just read the Bible but READ THE BIBLE) brings understanding and wisdom to the Believer. Some people think that because the Scriptures have been around this long that they will always be here, that the Preacher and Teacher will always preach and teach what the Bible says. However, that is not true.
I for one know that the Bible was here long before I came along and it will be here long after I am gone, maybe. I have met many Preachers and Teachers over my life time, and some of them have forsaken the Bible, some have retired from the pulpit, and some have sold out to the world. I have read in the Bible that in the last days many will grow cold and distant from God’s Word and live by their own standards. I also read where after having tasted the goodness of God you will not turn away. If you were able to turn away there is no more conciliation for you.
[Hebrews 6:4 – 6]
4 For in the case of those who have once been Enlightened and have tasted of the Heavenly gift and have been made Partakers of the Holy Spirit, 5 and have tasted the good Word of God And the powers of the age to come, 6 and then have fallen away, it is Impossible to renew them again To repentance, since they again Crucify to themselves the Son of God, And put Him to open shame.
Not only should we READ the Bible but we should also EAT OF THE WORD and ingest it into our innermost parts so that we may stand in the last days should we be called to stay a while longer here. One day it will come to pass that there wont be any more Preachers and or Teachers to speak the Word, one day there will no longer be Bibles to read or look up verses.
At I will be
11 “Behold, days are coming,” declares the Lord God, “When I will send a famine on the land, Not a famine for bread or a thirst for water, But rather for hearing the Word of the Lord. 12 And people will stagger from sea to sea, And from the north even to the east; They will go to and fro to seek the Word of the Lord, But they will not find it.
God wrote the Love Letter to us so that we may come to know Him intimately. That when He calls our name to come to Him it won’t be a shock, we will be ready. Oh to one day meet Him Face to Face, the Man who I have longed to meet; the one who GAVE ALL FOR ME. The only way that I can really get to know Him is to study His Life while on the earth and to talk with Him regularly. When I make to stand before Him I would rather hear “WELL DONE MY GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANT; then to hear that He didn’t know me.
