GOD-CENTERED NOT MAN-FOCUSED

The Bible

GOD-CENTERED BIBLE Begins & Ends With God! Genesis 1:1 - In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Revelation 22: He who testi- fies to these things says, "Surely I am coming quickly." Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus! The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.

While It Is True That We Can Know Some Things About The Lord From Observation & Nature (Ps.14:1; 19:1) It Is Only In The Bible That God Has Completely Revealed Himself To Us! Example: How Do We Know About God’s Mercy & How It’s Manifested? Through Observation Or Scriptures? John 3:16; Rom.5:6-11; Hebrews 5:9

What Is To Be Our Attitude And Approach To The Bible? RRead It - 1 Tim.4:13; Eph.3:3-4 SStudy It - 2 Tim.2:15; Acts 17:11 MMediate On It - Ps.119:97; 1:1-2 AApply It - 2Tim.3:16; 1Tim.4:16 TTeach It - Mt.28:18-20; Acts 8:4

GOD Is Not An Adjunct Of Man, Man is An Adjunct Of GOD (Genesis 1:26-28; John 4:24) GOD Is Not Dependent Upon Us, We Are Dependent Upon God (Acts 17:24-25; Philippians 4:13) GOD Will Not Be Judged By Us, We Will Be Judged By God (2 Corinthians 5:10; Rev.20:11-15)
