NASB | Micah 6:8 He has told you, O man, what is good; And what does the LORD require of you But to do justice, to love kindness, And to walk humbly with your God? |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Micah 6:8 He has told you, O man, what is good; And what does the LORD require of you Except to be just, and to love [and to diligently practice] kindness (compassion), And to walk humbly with your God [setting aside any overblown sense of importance or self-righteousness]? [Deut 10:12, 13] |
Subject: Has he (not) shown you? |
Bible Note: What does the Lord require of me? It is probably the most important question we should be asking as we go to the word of God. I am aware that the question has been asked before on this forum. Someone was looking for materials for a class, I think. I would like to suggest here that the matter goes beyond academics. It is related to life. God has revealed many things to us in his word, secret things, if you will. The answers are found nowhere else. Principally he has revealed himself, his nature, and he has revealed our nature and our need. But this revelation did not come only by words. It is probably in the incarnation that he showed us what he wanted to show us most clearly, in the life and work of Christ. Now we should know more clearly than Micah did, what God requires of us. Let us not be shy to discuss it for fear it will reveal our shortcomings. Let us encourage each other to know it (Ephesians 5:17) and to do it (John 13:17). |
