It's ALL good (and TRUE!)

But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. (2 Timothy 3:14-17)
When it comes to God's Word, it's ALL good and it is ALL true!Some may be a history lesson, some may be a song, others may be parables, but every word is from the Holy Spirit of God and it is all true and good for our good. There is no lie in the Bible. There is no untruth. Man may have caused some minute translational errors along the centuries (simple words or letters left out here or there) but God's Word is God's Word! If we do not believe it all, then we are lying to ourselves and disrespecting God. Many today choose to believe some of the Bible but not all of it. They pass it off as fairy tale or out of date. Not so! God's Word is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow . . . for all eternity.(Hebrews 13:8)There is no changing with God.(James 1:17)Jesus is the Word and His words remain as well. Everything else may pass away, but His Word shall always be! (Matthew 14:35) God's Word is a direct communication from our Creator to us. What a wonderful and comforting thought! It makes no sense to reject it! Only a fool would suggest such a thing!
It's all good and it's all true. Love it . . . embrace it . . . cherish it . . . believe it . . . live it out!
