Books are great; reading will bring pleasure
to those that appreciate that pass time. Books can be at the same time
educative and entertaining. Big or small books with images or not, they all
have their own interest. Commercial publicity may introduce us to many books
also word to mouth will bring us its reputation; we then look for it, once we
found it, we look at its cover, we read it summarily, we look at the price and
decide if we buy it or not.
There are
books for all tastes, science, history, poetry, fiction, biographies, essays
etc. The bible is known as the word of God, it contains many books that are all
related. What can be more interesting than the word of God? I cannot imagine. God’s design is showing the
way that man must progress from its fall from grace to redemption; how can a
flaw be mended, how faith is given by the all faithful, all as been created to
identify God made man, the unique son of God, The Alpha and Omega.
First,
creation is recalled, than man’s insouciance for whom means him great good. Man
goes on becoming intolerant before constraint. Man survives by recognizing a
merciful God and must adjust to recommendations. The fear of God is for the
wise, and rules are written down. Finally fear must be replaced by true love.
The Old Testament,
all the books of the first part of the bible exists to announce and prepare the
arrival of the Lord Jesus-Christ. The bible is God’s link to mankind.
Colossians
12
9
And so,
from the day we heard of it, we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that
you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and
understanding, 10 to lead a life worthy
of the Lord, fully pleasing to him, bearing fruit in every good work and
increasing in the knowledge of God. 11 May you be strengthened with all power, according to
his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy, 12 giving thanks to the Father, who
has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in light. 13 He has delivered us
from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved
Son, 14 in whom we have
redemption, the forgiveness of sins. 15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of
all creation. 16 For by him all things
were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or
dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for
him. 17 And he is before all
things, and in him all things hold together. 18 And he is the head of the body,
the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in
everything he might be preeminent. 19 For in him all the fullness of God was pleased to
dwell, 20 and through him to
reconcile to himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by
the blood of his cross.
We must repent.
The more we learn from the bible, the more we want to ask forgiveness for our
sins, and the more we see the glory of God.
May the
grace of our Lord Jesus-Christ be with everyone.
