Do you know God

The bigger and the more complex of the structure, the harder for other to understand and know about it.  Now take this concept and apply it to God.  It makes it imposible to know who is beyond everything that we could see with our naked eye—someone who is above the stars and galaxies.  By studying stars and galaxies, we know that we (people) know little about stars and galaxies.  Now God created stars and galaxies, and to say that I know God, a being that is above and greater and bigger, make's it an mind boggling statement.

That is why God had to become a men (human).  It would be something imposible to know and understand God without Jesus Christ.  To know God is to know Jesus Christ. You might say, I want to know God.  You can, if you know Jesus Christ.  Gospel of John writes these words, "And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent" (17:3).  It is simple, there is only one God that exist, true God.  And to know this true God is to know His son Jesus Christ.

You want to know the God who exist?  The God who created heaven and earth? the God you gives you breath everyday as you live? The God who you will see when you die?  If yes, then know Jesus Christ.  Who is he; why He came to earth; what did He preach and teach; what did He says about you, and what did he say about himself.

To know Jesus Christ is to know God.  "They said to him therefore, 'Where is you Father?' Jesus answered, 'You know neither me nor my Father.  If you knew me, you would know my Father also'" (John 8:19).

Lock Him up with the Bible & the Books

"Fling him into his office. Tear the 'Office' sign from the door and nail on the sign, 'Study.' Take him off the mailing list. Lock him up with his books and his typewriter and his Bible. Slam him down on his knees before texts and broken hearts and the flock of lives of a superficial flock and a holy God.  Force him to be the one man in our surfeited communities who knows about God. Throw him into the ring to box with God until he learns how short his arms are. Engage him to wrestle with God all the night through. And let him come out only when he's bruised and beaten into being a blessing.  Shut his mouth forever spouting remarks, and stop his tongue forever tripping lightly over every nonessential. Require him to have something to say before he dares break the silence. Bend his knees in the lonesome valley.  Burn his eyes with weary study. Wreck his emotional poise with worry for God. And make him exchange his pious stance for a humble walk with God a...
Everyone has an opinion on everything.  Even to say that I don't want to talk about this, says that their is already an opinion why not to talk about this.  Recently I had to answer some hard questions for myself, the questions that I haven't been faced before in my life, it just never needed to be answered.  I know there are more questions that I would have to answer in the future, but that time will come.  So an opinion is good, not unless it is being taken in a demanded form: this is the only way to do this, no other way is the right way. To demand something and ask it to be done, is possible—but it depends on authority that a person possess. Now biblically the authority only in the truth, no authority is in men—that's where the scripture is being tossed around to bash on those who has a different point of view.  If I don't like something, it doesn't mean that I am right and the other person is wrong, it might be the...

Interpreting the Bible

The Right Hermeneutics   To understand the Bible (that was written about 2000 years ago), requires the right hermeneutics. The majority of Old Testament was written in Hebrew and the New Testament was written in Greek. 2000 years separates us from the day of Apostles (New Testament), but the Old Testament books were written long before that. Today we can see how cults use the bible to defense their heresies. Bible is read through out the world in many languages and not every person who teaches the bible have a seminary degree. Bible itself was not intended to be used by educated or scholarly people. John wrote, “The anointing which you received from Him abides in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you; but as His anointing teaches you about all things” (1 John 2:27). Yet having stated that, ignorance is not an excuse to make dramatic interpretation mistakes. Bible is not a book to have it be used anyway someone desires to.  In fact, Bible as a book did...
