Bible Question: As a product of the ancient world,what value doesthe Bible have for us today? |
Bible Answer: Greetings, davidup2u; If the Bible is not the inspired Word of God, it has no value, now or in the past. If it is (and I am certain that it is), it is not "a product of the ancient world", it is a product of the eternal God. The most valuable thing it has for anybody at any time is God's testimony to his son Jesus. 2 Tim 3:15 says that the Scriptures are "are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.". Previously, in John 5:39, Jesus himself had said "You diligently study the Scriptures because you think that by them you possess eternal life. These are the Scriptures that testify about me". Jesus was foretold throughout the Old Testament and identified in the New. Everything else in the Bible is secondary to that central saving message. Hope this helps. Peace and grace, Steve aka Indiana Jones |
