WHOSE BOOK IS THIS

“All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness.”

-2 Timothy 3:16

“Mommy, whose book is this?” the question came from a little girl who had just discovered a black, dusty leather-bound volume on a table. The mother looked up and smiled, “Why, that is a Bible, God’s book.” “Well,” said the little girl, “Why don’t we send it back to Him cause we don’t use it around here.” The innocence of a child sometimes prods deeply into our lives.

Whose book is this, made up of sixty-six separate books, stamped in gold, “Holy Bible?” Is it merely man’s? Or it is more than this? If it’s more than man’s wisdom, then it offers eternal guidelines for living. If it just another book, then let it take its place on the library shelf alongside Homer and Shakespeare, Milton and others.

The Bible is the most unique piece of literature in history. It took sixteen hundred years from the day Moses first started to write until John finished the last book of the New Testament.

Think of the continuity of thought over the long period of time. The Bible is unique in that there is one theme weaving through it down through the centuries. It is the story of God’s grace and love, the story of a changeless God in a changing world. Only God could give to men such a book.

Paul wrote, “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness” (2 Timothy 3:15).

Have you discovered what the Bible has to say about your life? Why not start today and discover why the Bible is the world’s best-selling and best loved book? Teddy Roosevelt once said, “A thorough knowledge of the Bible is worth more than a college education.” Read it and discover guidelines for living.

God Bless YOU..
