INDUCTIVE COMMENTS:

THEME: GOD'S WORD WILL COMPLETE ITS TASK:

This paper discussed a number of ways God reveals Himself to His people. God will show Himself to anyone that is diligently seeking Him.

Hebrews 11:6 "But without faith <it is> impossible to please <him>: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and <that> he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him."

Deuteronomy 17:19 "And it shall be with him, and he shall read therein all the days of his life: that he may learn to fear the LORD his God, to keep all the words of this law and these statutes, to do them:" This is the goal of the Christian.

Isaiah 55:11 "So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it." The Bible, scriptures, are God's words.

Joel 2:28 "And it shall come to pass afterward, <that> I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:" This only started on Pentecost Acts 2:16-18.

John 20:30-31 "And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book: {31} But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name." Not every event of Jesus is in the Bible.

2 Timothy 3:16 "All scripture <is> given by inspiration of God, and <is> profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:" The purpose of God's word is growth.

PURPOSE: List of but few of the reasons for the word.

A) GOD'S WORD STARTS CHRISTIANS IN NEW LIFE:

Jeremiah 15:16 "Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts."

Romans 10:8 "But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, <even> in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;" The word is closer than one expects.

2 Timothy 3:15 "And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus."

1 Peter 1:23 "Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever." The word of God brings people to the new life.

1 John 5:13 "These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God."

B) GOD'S WORD IS TO TEACH:

Joshua 1:8 "This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success."

Hebrews 5:12 "For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which <be> the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat."

1 Peter 2:2 "As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:" The word is both milk and meat.

C) GOD'S WORD CLEANS & PURIFIES:

Psalms 119:11 "Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee."

Hebrews 4:12 "For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart."

KEY VERSE:

John 1:1 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." Jesus is God & the Word of God.

2 Timothy 3:16 "All scripture <is> given by inspiration of God, and <is> profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:"

WHO: God mainly by Bible authors Moses, David, Matthew, Luke, John, and Paul

TO WHOM: Elected Christians

WHAT:

A) GOD'S WORD STARTS CHRISTIANS IN NEW LIFE:

2 Timothy 3:15 "And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus."

1 Peter 1:23 "Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever." The word of God brings people to the new life.

1 John 5:13 "These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God."

B) GOD'S WORD IS TO TEACH:

C) GOD'S WORD CLEANS & PURIFIES:

WHY: We can not force God to reveal Himself to us. He is God and we are His created people. He can reveal Himself to some people and not others as He chooses.

Matthew 13:11-13 "He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given. {12} For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath. {13} Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand."

Romans 9:18-21 "Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth. {19} Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will? {20} Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus? {21} Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?"

WAY: The Bible is the revelation of God and how He inter-relates with mankind. Jesus (God) is the focal point of all scriptures & life.

Psalms 40:7 "Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book <it is> written of me," Fulfilled in Hebrews 10:7 the next verse.

Hebrews 10:7 "Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God."From Psalms 40:7 above

Luke 24:27 "And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself." The scriptures were written to tell about Jesus.

John 1:1 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." Jesus is God & the Word of God.

John 5:39 "Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me."Jesus revealed

John 21:25 "And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen." God's word is enough for salvation, growth, etc.

Acts 10:43 "To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins."

Acts 13:29 "And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took <him> down from the tree, and laid <him> in a sepulchre."

1 John 1:1 "That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;" Jesus as God

WHEREAS:

A) WORD IS WRITTEN IN THE OLD TESTAMENT BOOK:

Jeremiah 30:1-2 "The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying, {2} Thus speaketh the LORD God of Israel, saying, Write thee all the words that I have spoken unto thee in a book."

B) WORD IS WRITTEN IN THE NEW TESTAMENT BOOK:

2 Peter 3:15-16 "And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you; {16} As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction." Paul's New Testament epistles are scriptures.

C) JESUS SAID THE SCRIPTURES ARE THE WORDS OF GOD:

Matthew 5:17 "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil."

Matthew 26:54 "But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?"

WHERE: On earth

WHEN: All times

WHILE: Prophets and other ministries (Teacher, Apostle, Evangelist and Pastor) are spokesman for another, for God. They were messengers of the Lord & Seer (to see) are Prophets who delivered God's word.

Exodus 7:1-2 "And the LORD said unto Moses, See, I have made thee a god to Pharaoh: and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet. {2} Thou shalt speak all that I command thee: and Aaron thy brother shall speak unto Pharaoh, that he send the children of Israel out of his land."

Numbers 11:29 "And Moses said unto him, Enviest thou for my sake? would God that all the LORD'S people were prophets, <and> that the LORD would put his spirit upon them!"

1 Samuel 9:9 "(Beforetime in Israel, when a man went to inquire of God, thus he spake, Come, and let us go to the seer: for <he that is> now <called> a Prophet was beforetime called a Seer.)"

Jeremiah 1:7 "But the LORD said unto me, Say not, I <am> a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak." God guides the prophet.

1 Corinthians 12:28 "And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healing, helps, governments, diversities of tongues." Prophet is second only to apostle in the church.

1 Thessalonians 2:13 "For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe." The apostles wrote & spoke the word of God about Jesus.

2 Peter 1:20-21 "Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. {21}For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake <as they were> moved by the Holy Ghost." Holy Ghost supplied words.

WANT: God has the prophets give the future message before it occurs.

Isaiah 41:21-22 "Let them bring <them> forth, and show us what shall happen: let them show the former things, what they <be>, that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them; or declare us things for to come. {23} Show the things that are to come hereafter, that we may know that ye <are> gods: yea, do good, or do evil, that we may be dismayed, and behold <it> together."

Isaiah 42:9 "Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them."

Amos 3:7-8 "Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets. {8} The lion hath roared, who will not fear? the Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy?"This proves God's foreknowledge and He predestination it.

WAIT: The Bible is a Jewish book written by Jewish authors about Jewish historical events and a Jewish Messiah in the Jewish land Israel.

Deuteronomy 4:7 "For what nation <is there so> great, who <hath> God <so> nigh unto them, as the LORD our God <is> in all <things that> we call upon him <for>? {8} And what nation <is there so> great, that hath statutes and judgments <so> righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day?"

Psalms 147:19 "He showeth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel. {20} He hath not dealt so with any nation: and <as for his> judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the LORD." God blessed all nations through Jews people.

Romans 3:1-2 "What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit <is there> of circumcision? {2} Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God."Word given Israel

II) GOD'S WORDS ARE VERY IMPORTANT:

God's word is above even His name.

Psalms 138:2 "I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name."Words higher then God's name

III) JESUS IS THE WORD OF GOD:

The Bible is the revelation of God and how He inter-relates with mankind. Jesus (God) is the focal point of all scriptures & life.
