THE WORD OF GOD

The Word of God

The Word of God is full of living power. It is sharper than the sharpest knife, cutting deep into our innermost thoughts and desires. It exposes us for what we really are. Nothing in all creation can hide from Him. Everything is naked and exposed before His eyes. This is the God to whom we must explain all that we have done. The Word of God is a clear statement of what God wants us to do and knows what's best for us. To live according to God's Word is to live according to his will, and that my friend is a good life.

2 TIMOTHY 3:16; 2 PETER 1:20-21; 1 KINGS 8:56; PSALM 18:30

The Word of God is fail-proof; not one promise has failed.
