The Importance Of The Bible In Our Lives
Jesse M. Hendley
Luke 24:44
Friends, we are thinking today of "The Importance of the Bible in our Lives," in your life and mine. In Luke 24, verse 44, Jesus said, These are the words I spake unto you while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the Law of Moses, and in the Prophets, and in the Psalms, CONCERNING ME." Jesus was saying that the Scriptures of the Old Testament were the Word of God and that they had to be fulfilled.
If you are reasonable and rational and spiritual, you will have to believe that our Bible is the very Word of God. The Old Testament that Jesus had is the same Old Testament that we have today, and Jesus called it the Sacred Scriptures! He was talking about our Old Testament when He spoke of Moses, the first five books of the Bible, called the Pentateuch. The Prophets were another division. The Psalms were another division. We know that the Old Testament that He had is what we have today, and Jesus said they are the Word of God and that they must be fulfilled. He said also that the important teaching of the Old Testament were the passages concerning Himself. The Coming of the Messiah is the supreme subject of the Old Testament!
Verse 25. Even after His resurrection, some men did not believe in Him. He said unto them, "O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken!" Jesus said anybody was foolish and slow of heart not to believe all that the prophets had written. "Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and enter into His glory?" He was saying, doesn’t the Old Testament teach you two aspects of truth about the Messiah Who was to come? First, His sufferings, at His first coming to put away our sins, and then His glory, and then His second coming in glory to establish God's promise of peace. As we read the Old Testament we find these two truths predicted: first, the sufferings ...
