SCRIPTURE(S)

SCRIPTURE: A term specifically applied to the Word Of God, which was given by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Christians include both the OT and NT under the term, while Jews refer only to the OT, i.e. the Hebrew Bible. Do you remember the account of when the religious leaders questioned Jesus about the resurrection? Listen it's vital that we understand the Scriptures. These religious leaders as always attempted to trip Jesus up (Matt 22:29-30). But Jesus answered and said to them, " You are mistaken, NOT Understanding The Scriptures nor the power of God. (30) " For the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven. Now these so called learner'd men (Sadducee's) asked Jesus what marriage would be like in Heaven. Jesus responded in said fashion, that it is more important to understand GOD'S POWER than to know what heaven will be like. I imagine that in every generation and culture to this point ideas of Eternal Life tend to be based on images and experiences of their present life. Now, Jesus answered that these flawed ideas are caused by ignorance (Lack Of Knowledge) of God's Word. Hear Me, we must not make up our own ideas about eternity and Heaven by thinking of it and God in human terms. But we should employ all our mental powers on our relationship with God than about what Heaven will look like. Eventually we will find out, and it will be far beyond our greatest expectations. LAST POINT: As a Man, Jesus lived a perfect life, and so He is a Perfect example of how to live. As God, Jesus gives us the power to do what is right. It is possible to live a Godly Life - through following Christ. Until Next Time... Jim,
