It's the revelation of God to the world, a breath of God useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness, equipping you for every good work.
This greatest Book on earth will keep you away from sin and temptations, giving you an opportunity to transform from a sinner into a saint. The word of God is living and powerful, lighting your path, giving you direction and clarity for your future by overcoming sin.
The Bible has the power to save your soul from eternal fire and teach you to live a holy life. It has the keys for unlocking a hardened heart and showing you God's way. It will comfort you when you're lonely, give you hope when you're hopeless, and rest when you're weary. It will lift you up when you're discouraged and hurt in despair.”

Grass may wither, flowers may fade, but the Word of our God remains forever, guiding and transforming your life.”

“You are strong and courageous, not afraid of anyone because the Lord your God is with you. He will not fail you or forsake you. God's plans for you are to prosper, not to harm, giving you hope and a future. You can do all things through Christ who gives you strength. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, don't depend on your own understanding, and He will show you which path to take. God's joy is your strength, and with Him, all things are possible. You are fearfully and wonderfully made, and the prayer of a righteous person is powerful. God's goodness will be seen in your life, and He will meet all your needs according to His riches in Christ Jesus. You will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living, and He will restore what has been lost. Declare His works and praise Him, for He is faithful and His plans for you are good.
You are accepted in Christ. You are a child of God, His dearly loved friend, and a joint heir with Christ. United with the Lord, you are one in spirit with Him. Saved by grace through faith, you have peace with God and are reconciled to Him. Loved by Jesus and freed from your sins by His blood, you are forgiven and washed, sanctified, and justified in His name. You are a new creation, dead to sin and alive to God, complete in Christ with all you need. You have direct access to God through the Holy Spirit and are a saint, righteous and holy, justified and redeemed. You belong to God, bought with a price, and are a partaker of Christ's life.”

“The words in the Bible are not just words; they are God’s words. Something happens when you read the Bible as opposed to any other piece of literature. It is almost too complicated to explain, but there is a simple concept that sums up the complexity of the matter. Ask yourself this question: “If I read the Bible every day for a year, for fifteen minutes a day, how would my life be different?” Pause right now and ask yourself this question. If you have never read the Bible before, dream about what this might mean for you.”
― Steven Kolberg, Reviving Fatherhood: Guiding Every Dad from First Steps to Lasting Legacy

“When we confess our sins, we should seek more than just forgiveness; we should ask for complete renewal and restoration. Like David, we can pray for a new heart, a steadfast spirit, and the joy of salvation. Forgiveness is just the beginning; we need God's restoration to experience the fullness of His presence. Returning to the joy of salvation means regaining the sense of purpose and delight that comes from walking with God. As we seek God's forgiveness, let's also ask Him to uphold us with His generous Spirit and guide us on the path of righteousness. By doing so, we can experience a deeper, more vibrant relationship with God, marked by joy, peace, and spiritual renewal.”

“The words of Jesus are spirit and life, holding power to guide and transform us. Unlike mortal writings, God's Word is eternal and inspired, providing the truth we need to stay on the right path. To diminish the inspiration of Scripture is to undermine its authority and life-giving power. The Bible is not just a book of devotional thoughts or moral teachings, but the very words of God, breathed out for our guidance and salvation. Through its pages, God speaks to us, showing us the way, correcting us when we stray, and empowering us to walk in His truth.”
― Shaila Touchton

“The Holy Spirit's work is often misunderstood as promoting chaos and ecstatic experiences, but Scripture reveals a different narrative. Instead, the Spirit fosters order, reverence, and sound doctrine, guiding believers in a path of truth and wisdom. God's nature is one of order, not disorder, and the Spirit's ministry reflects this character. Through the Spirit's work, believers are empowered to live lives marked by discipline, self-control, and a deepening understanding of God's Word. The Spirit's role is not to create confusion or emotional frenzy, but to glorify Christ and build up the body of believers. By examining Scripture, we see that the Holy Spirit's work is one of beautiful order and purposeful design.”

“The Bible may not mention ego by name, but it strongly warns against the dangers of pride and self-exaltation. An inflated sense of self can lead to destruction, as seen in the examples of Lucifer and humanity's fall in the Garden of Eden. Instead of embracing ego, believers are called to live humbly, recognizing their dependence on God and loving others. Scripture emphasizes the importance of dying to oneself and living for Christ, with our primary identity founded in Him. A humble heart allows God to lift us up, bringing riches, honor, and life. By acknowledging that every good gift comes from God, we can cultivate humility and avoid the pitfalls of prideful ego.”

“According to the Bible, Eve was the first trans woman.

She transitioned from a male rib to a female.”
― Oliver Markus Malloy, Atheist Guide: Atheism in a Nutshell

“Many claim to follow the Bible, but not all paths lead to the same truth. A Bible-based church isn't just about the name, but about living out its teachings. Let's look beyond labels and focus on the core message of love, compassion, and faith. True devotion is shown in actions, not just words. Let's strive to build our foundations on the principles of scripture, rather than just claiming affiliation.”
― Shaila Touchton

“A pastor-centered church builds a following, but a Christ-centered church builds disciples. In a pastor-centered church, the focus is on man; in a Christ-centered church, the focus is on God. A pastor-centered church exalts the leader, while a Christ-centered church exalts Jesus. When the pastor is the center, the congregation is limited; when Christ is the center, the congregation is limitless. Let us ensure our churches point people to Jesus, not to men.”
