~ Theology Is Not Necessary To Understand The Bible ~
Myth ~ A surprising number of people believe theology is only for pastors and theologians. Nothing could be farther from the truth.
Reality ~ Theology is a term which basically means the study of God. The Bible is God’s written Word to mankind. If we are to understand God we must understand what He has revealed to us in His Word.
Quotes ~ “God’s attributes are the basis of all human ethics.”
“There is nothing that gives me greater hope and assurance this morning than my knowledge of the character of God. God is eternal, God is immutable, God is everlasting, God never changes His purpose. Is there a greater comfort than that?” –Martyn Lloyd-Jones
“A God whom we could understand would be no God. If we could grasp Him, He could not be infinite.” –Charles Spurgeon
Comment ~ Someone created an acrostic for the Bible: Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth. That is an excellent description of the Holy Bible.
