God Thinking LIV - Did You Create Your Own Religion 3

"Romans 6:16, “Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?”

Whether you are a carpenter or and engineer, housewife or clerk, God wants you to be available for Him to reach the unbelieving world, in you and through you.

All the blessings that God has prophesied unto you are found in His Word.  God wants all His people to become familiar with Him and you become familiar with God when you read His Word. 

The best way to do away with the cults and false religions of the world in this generation is to get people reading the Bible on their own, at home, in their car, at work, while exercising,
wherever you are.

Here’s why?

You don’t read the Word of God so that you can all be pastors.

You don’t read the Word of God so that you can all become theologians or Bible scholars, teachers or experts on biblical exegesis.

You don’t read the Word of God so that you can compete with others, (by knowing more Bible trivia than someone else).

You read the bible because it is the means of communication that God chose for mankind.  God did this so that you, in whatever station, would have all the information necessary to live a life of fulfillment and you would also have all the information necessary to glorify God.

Not only does the Word contain all that is necessary for instruction in righteousness, wisdom, holiness and heart purity, but God also imparts to you, Himself, through the Word of God.

Unlike any other book, God deposits more of Himself into you as you read, if, as you read, you read for the purpose of receiving from God, His timeless truths."
