What does the Bible stand for?

You'd be surprised no one really know what it stands for....

B.I.B.L.E

  • Basic
  • Instructions
  • Before
  • Leaving
  • Earth

B.I.B.L.E

I find it ironic that most people you talk to say you CAN'T relate anything from the Bible to todays world.

Really? You really believe that?

"I'm an Atheist"

So, even the devil knows the Bible. Hello! If you read the Bible you'd know that too.

"Yes, I do! They didn't have computers, T.V's, IPads, Cars, planes, etc."

No, they sure didn't, but they had:

  • The RICH, the poor,
  • atheists, believers,
  • diseases, famine,
  • family struggles, divorce,
  • death, killings, suicide,
  • prostitution, sex trafficking, sex crimes, slavery,
  • alcoholics, drug addicts,
  • stealing, lying, cheating, mental illness, sickness,
  • the King (Government) telling them how to live, Paying HIGH taxes, low wages,
  • hate their jobs, fighting with the neighbors,

and get this; They even had....wait for it.....WARS.

Wow, just like us in today's society; hummm, interesting.

But it doesn't relate to you...OK, ego.

Everything that they were going through, they had choices to make, they had priorities, just like you. Hummm, interesting. But it doesn't relate to you.

Everything that was going on then, those people had the same feelings AND emotions that you do. Humm, very very interesting...

Have you ever felt 1 or more of these feelings and emotions?

Negative and forceful

  • Anger
  • Annoyance
  • Contempt
  • Disgust
  • Irritation

Negative and not in control

  • Anxiety
  • Embarrassment
  • Fear
  • Helplessness
  • Powerlessness
  • Worry

Negative thoughts

  • Doubt
  • Envy
  • Frustration
  • Guilt
  • Shame

Negative and passive

  • Boredom
  • Despair
  • Disappointment
  • Hurt
  • Sadness

Agitation

  • Stress
  • Shock
  • Tension

  • Amusement
  • Delight
  • Elation
  • Excitement
  • Happiness
  • Joy
  • Pleasure

Caring

  • Affection
  • Empathy
  • Friendliness
  • Love

Positive thoughts

  • Courage
  • Hope
  • Pride
  • Satisfaction
  • Trust

Quiet positive

  • Calmness
  • Contentment
  • Relaxation
  • Relief
  • Serenity

Reactive

  • Interest
  • Politeness
  • Surprise

Hummm, but the Bible still doesn't pertain to you? Wow, that's very intriguing. Explain that to me...Because I am totally confused here.....GO!

I hear nothing.....GO!

All I hear is SILENCE.....

Because you can't tell me it doesn't pertain to you. It does pertain to you. And you know it, you're just scared that you might learn the truth. Go on I dare you; PROVE me wrong! GO!

Whatever it is you are going through right now, think about it; really think about what you are dealing with right now.

What's the problem; work? Family? Health? Finances?

Tell me what is going on in your life. If you look it up and apply the Bible to your situation, I guarantee it will work; but there's a catch. I know...always a BIG BUTT in there somewhere. This is a lil butt, tiny lil thing, barely see it...Such cute lil thing, it sure is!

You need to do the work; you have to look it up, read the scriptures, apply them (LISTEN AND OBEY), pray and stand firm in Faith! That's it! Very simple.

Did I mention God is very simple? He is so simple, you'd laugh. Look at a child, they are so simple, before we CONFORM them to us; they think outside the box, and at the problem. Children don't analyze, adults that are too BIG for their britches do. Children have wisdom from God, Adults have worldly wisdom. Children LOSE that wisdom when we taint them.....

NOW One last thing....This is NOT a book to use your wisdom or interpretation on what God is saying! And DON'T ever use this:

"You know what I mean"!

How ignorant is that?!?! Seriously, that is just ignorant at it's finest...You know what I mean. Ok, I am so smart, I am so smart....S-M-R-T!

It's time for you to take the challenge....Time for you to PROVE me wrong.

GO!

“Bible" is from the Greek word “Byblos" and the Latin “biblia" and both mean “books." These “books" are a collection of writings constituting the sacred text of Scripture.
