Matthew (Program #24) – The Decree of the Kingdom’s Constitution (12)

Matthew chapter 5, 6 and 7 are chapters of the Bible that are often quoted, even by unbelievers because their thought of, is chapters containing marvelous ethical, even philosophical thought.  But a careful examination reveals this portion of Scripture to be far beyond mere human philosophy or ethics.  Those things as well as the very best man can master are scraped away by the narrow and constricted path leading to the kingdom of the heavens.

Psalms (Program #3) – Christ in God’s Economy versus the Law in Man’s Appreciation (2)

The Bible is not an ordinary book.  Though it surely contains a lot of history, we should not read it as a history book. It also contains scores of moral and behavioral imperatives but we should not take it as a book of ethics.  Neither should we approach the Bible as a book of philosophy . Because beyond all of these things, history, ethics, philosophy, The Bible is in its’ essence, God’s own breath revealing the Christ of God enable to convey God Himself as life into those who come to seeking nothing else but His very person.

Most of the time Christians are satisfied if their behavior before the unbelieving world reflects a proper ethical conduct and high moral.

Colossians (Program #12) – Christ-The Mystery Of God’s Economy

What kind of book is the Bible to you? Maybe a book of stories of inspiring men of faith or perhaps a book of deep teachings and doctrines. Or, a book of ethics or words of wisdom for men to live by. Well, surely it’s all of these things but if these are all we see in the Bible, we’d missed the mark. Because embedded in all the stories, all the teachings, and all the ethics and wisdom lies the mystery of God and of His heart’s desire for man. Listen to Paul the Apostle in Colossians 1:25  “Of which I became a minister according to the stewardship of God, which was given to me for you, to complete the word of God, The mystery which has been hidden from the ages and from the generations but now has been manifested to His saints;”
