The 66 books of the Bible is the greatest Gift God has given to mankind.
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
Amen to your post
the word is something God speaks and man understands and speaks , words are part of mankind’s design bekng made in Gods image.
of all God created man alone was made in his likeness and image , given dominion on earth freedom and access to the tree of life. Everything just given by the word of God the creator spoken to mankind the central and crowning part of creation.
everything we know is true about God is found in scripture and reflected later in our lives. Man is made to operate by the word of god hearing believing and following after the understanding conveyed by the words.
animals to some extent u deters do language inflection but words discerning then and converting them to thoughts and understanding , concepts of truth and life …these are mans traits more than anything else in creation man is designed to operate by the word
man can always live if they accept and follow gods word
“And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food;
the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
And the LORD God took
the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it. And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:
but of
the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.”
Genesis 2:9, 15-17 KJV
Adam could have lived by keeping this warning as truth and walking by it instead he tested the word of death it holds
“
See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil;
in that
I command thee this day to love the
LORD thy God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his judgments, that thou mayest live and multiply: and the LORD thy God shall bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it.
But if thine heart turn away, so that thou wilt not hear, but shalt be drawn away, and worship
other gods, and serve them;
I denounce unto you this day, that ye shall surely perish, and that ye shall not prolong your days upon the land, whither thou passest over Jordan to go to possess it.
I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that
I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:”
Deuteronomy 30:15-19 KJV
israel could have lived if they obeyed all the words of the law. Instead they chose the words of death and cursing in the law. Notice how it’s specific to israel and the land they were promised in the law but the New Testament is about all
Nations and people.
Now
Gods word is sent out to everyone to believe and belong to him by faith to the prisoners and free every race and nationality make and female young and old
your post is an amen we’re actually designed by and to operate by his word
“But he answered and said, It is written,
Man shall not
live by bread alone, but
by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.”
Matthew 4:4 KJV
“Verily, verily, I say unto you,
He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.”
John 5:24 KJV
“Verily, verily, I say unto you,
If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death.”
John 8:51 KJV
“
Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.
Judge not, and
ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and
ye shall not be condemned:
forgive, and
ye shall be forgiven:
give, and
it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall be given into your bosom.
For
with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.”
Luke 6:36-38 KJV
Jesus words always offer truth to change us and a blessing if we accept it. Words to live by when thinking of judgement
“For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: but if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.”
Matthew 6:14-15 KJV
“And when ye stand praying,
forgive, if ye have ought against any: that
your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.
But
if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.”
Mark 11:25-26 KJV
if we think this way it’s going to change how we are different subjects like for example forgiveness and mercy , condemning and judging others ect
