Where do you turn when the bottom of your life drops out?

On the last insight for living, Chuck Swindall said that people generally respond in one of

four ways.

When a crisis strikes, they try escapism, cynicism, humanism, and in rare cases, super-naturalism.

So Chuck posed the question, why not rely on the timeless wisdom of Holy Scripture?

After all, the Bible is the final authority.

The Psalmist wrote, forever, Lord, forever, thy word is settled in heaven.

Thy faithfulness continues throughout all generations.

Chuck titled today's message, God's Book, God's Voice.

When you realize that the readings or the print that you are reading is, in fact, God's

message, God's Word, it stands alone.

It's all by itself.

Think of it this way.

God's Book is, as it were, God's Voice.

His opinion, His counsel, His commands, His desires, His warnings, His very mind in this

book.

1 Peter chapter 1, verse 22, since you have an obedience to the truth, purified your souls

for a sincere love of the brethren, fervently loved one another from the heart.

For you have been born again, out of seed which is perishable, but imperishable, that

is through the living and abiding Word of God.

For all flesh is like grass, and all it's glory like the flower of grass, the grass withers,

and the flower falls off, but the Word of the Lord abides forever.
