God wrote a Book…His Book…the Bible. He put it into human language so that it could be received, read and understood by human beings. So we must read it…understand it…know it. But don’t stop with knowledge. Accomplish its purpose. Do what it says.

 

James 1:22-25

22 Do not merely listen to the Word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. 23 Anyone who listens to the Word but does not do what it says is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror 24 and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. 25 But the man who looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, but doing it–he will be blessed in what he does.

 

“Knowledge of facts is important. Knowledge of truth is essential. Yet our Lord’s concern goes beyond mere head knowledge. He wants us not only to know the truth but also to obey the truth. He wants us to live the truth, practice the truth, and be conformed to and transformed by that truth.” ~ Wayne Mack

 

 

The Lord bless you and keep you…
