Search the Scriptures
3/24/2018
John 5:39 (KJV)
39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
While reading my Bible today I came upon this verse. It matters not how many times you hear people say to read your Bible. It does not matter how many times preachers tell you to study your Bible and your Sunday school lessons. If you never do read, study or search the Bible.
In this verse we are told to “search the scriptures” not by an apostle or prophet, but by Jesus himself.
If we were to treat the Bible as if it were a diamond mine, where the more we dug around and turned the dirt the richer we would be. The more prepared we would be for what we have to face on a daily basis.
Let us make this year the year that we become “richer” in our Bible knowledge.
