Back to the Bible

A woman once said to me, “Like the Bible says, preacher, ‘Every tub must sit on its own bottom.’” We laugh, but such ignorance is rampant today among so-called Christians. It is reported 85% of our nation professes to be Christians. Yet, just to take one example, the immorality that plagues us is equal only to that of the Roman Empire before its fall (some think worse).

Ignorance to the law is no excuse. So we are told in our courts. Well nether is ignorance of God’s Law before His tribunal. Breaking commandments such as, “Thou shalt not commit adultery,” Thou shalt not steal,” and “Honour thy father and thy mother,” etc., cannot be justified by arguing, “I didn’t know.” Neither by saying, “That’s your interpretation.” It means what it says, as do all His Commandments!

We are in desperate need of a Bible Revival in our time. You can understand a Bible Blindness during the Dark Ages; but not a self-imposed willful one, in our enlightened day. God promises blessings and prosperity to all those who both read and keep His Word, and a curse to those who do not. I for one want the blessings of God upon my life.  

“The Bible will keep me from sin or sin will keep me from the Bible!” (D. L. Moody)
