The BIBLE


We have been watching the video series “The BIBLE” throughout the summer.  We started with God creating the world in Genesis.  All that God made was good. God is good all the time; His purpose and will is very good. And yet we quickly see how man has a way of ignoring the good that God makes.  By ignoring God we create destruction and death.  The Bible is filled with God’s promises to His people whether it was to Abraham or Moses we see how each time God kept His promises to His people.  The further we go through scripture the more God promises are not meant just for people thousands of years ago but for us today.  As John wrote so beautifully nearly 2000 years ago “For God so loved the world that He gave is only son that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life”.  These words of promise are meant for all of us, they are words of promise and fulfillment all in one verse.  The video series we have watched on Sunday nights is not perfect and has its flaws and yet it also proclaims God’s great love for you and me.  Many people who watch this series will have many questions. Therefore as the world watches this series we have been given an opportunity to open the Bible and answer those questions with God’s perfect Word.  It is my hope God will give us more opportunities to proclaim His great love.  -Vic
