“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” John 1:1 KJV The Word of God is not ink and paper.  The Word of God is the Person of Jesus.

“For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.” Hebrews 4:15 KJV In the Old Testament, the Israelites as a nation were wrapped up in the standing of the high priest. The standing of every one of them before God was based on their high priest....

“Therefore, if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.’” 2 Corinthians 5:17 (KJV) I am glad for every one that has received Christ into his life.

“My mouth shall speak wisdom; the meditation of my heart shall be understanding.” Psalm 49:3 KJV Today we are enjoying the product of, other people’s reasoning.

“As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.” 1 Peter 4:10 KJV If everyone in our churches begins to think, there would be no one unemployed.
