Romans 3:28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law.

No matter who we are, whether we are Jew or not, we are justified by our faith in Christ and not any rule written down, obeyed or described.

We do not have to perform some great task or pay enough money in order for us to be made whole; it is our belief in Jesus Christ which is what is required.

Our justification will lead us to do good works and indeed if we do not do good deeds we are making our faith of no use because we are saying one thing and doing another.

Matthew 5:18 For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled.

When God inspired people to write down His Word He made sure is was written down as something which will never change. Man has changed it by translating it and manipulating it to make some sort of sense.

But what God inspired has not changed, only our perception of it has.

I love the fact that Christ knew the word and knew the truth. I love the fact God gave us enough to make sure we could understand and grow in wisdom through His words.

He does not have to change anything which has been written down; but we do need to try and understand it better before we break everything!

Psalm 119:89 Forever, O Lord, Your word is settled in heaven.

No matter how much we try to promise here on earth we tend to break those promises and ultimately fail each other.

God’s Word is the ultimate promise and will always remain true and constant; it is rooted in Heaven and continues to remain so.

God’s will is described through His Word and that too remains as the perfect standard by which we can all hope to live by.

I long for the day when I will be in that perfect will and word in Heaven with God!

1 Peter 1:25 But the word of the Lord endures forever. Now this is the word which by the gospel was preached to you.

Men, woman, priests, Kings, Queens; all men die some time. Nothing in the world is absolutely certain and that includes our time of death.

God’s Word has continued to defy people by staying current through many years of history and remaining the biggest selling book for some time.

It is the content of this amazing book which remains current and continues to amaze, teach and prepare man for what he has to deal with in life.

Year after year people get to hear the truth and realise it as we continue in faith.
