EVERY WORD IN BIBLE TRUE!
AUGUST 23
2 Timothy 3:16
EVERY WORD IN BIBLE TRUE!
"Are you ready for the test on evolution tomorrow?" asked Joshua as he and his friend Dan walked home.
Dan sighed. "I guess so," he replied. "I can explain evolution the way Mr. Lee did, but I don’t believe it. I believe God created everything."
"Mr. Lee says he believes the Bible, too, but he just doesn’t think God really created everything," said Josh. He shrugged. "What’s the big deal? What does it matter anyway?" As another boy rode by on a bike and waved, Joshua scowled. "There goes Ben. That’s one guy I’ll never believe again!" he exclaimed. "You know what Ben did? He promised me that when he got a new bike, I could buy his old one. After he finally got a new one, he told me he had sold the old one to Jeff for twice as much as he had said I could have it for."
"Well, you can’t blame Ben for wanting the extra money," said Dan.
"Maybe not, but I talked to Jeff last week, and he said he paid the same amount I was going to pay! Ben’s been bragging to everybody about his new bike-says his father paid big bucks for it. I saw his cousin yesterday, and he says his dad gave Ben the bike for doing some work-and it’s not new, either!" Josh frowned. "I don’t think I’ll ever believe anything Ben says. If he lies like that about one thing, he’ll lie about other things, too."
"Wouldn’t that be true about God and the Bible, too?" asked Dan.
"God?" asked Joshua. "What do you mean?"
"Well, the Bible is God’s Word, and the very first verse says, ‘In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth,’"replied Dan."The whole chapter is about God making everything. There are lots of other verses in the Bible, too, that say God created everything. If they’re lies, how can we believe anything in the Bible?"
Joshua looked thoughtful. "So… if we’re going to believe in the Bible and God at all, we’ve got to believe He created everything?" he asked.
"That’s the way I see it," agreed Dan. "I think I’ll put that somewhere on my test paper tomorrow, too."
Thought: Do you believe the Bible? All of it?
Prayer: Heavenly Father, please help me to remember that You created everything, just like the Bible stated. To believe otherwise is to say that You does not always tell the truth! And teach me never to believe in the lie of evolution! This I pray in Jesus’ name – Amen.
