”Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.” | Philippians 2: 16

How many times have you heard someone say, “I don’t read the Bible because I don’t understand it, and since I don’t understand it, very quickly I lose interest in it.”

There was once a young lady that began reading a novel and after a chapter or two, she found the book dull, and losing interest, she placed the book upon her shelf.

Later she met a young man, and when the relationship became more serious, she discovered that he was an author.

The title of one of his novels sounded very familiar, and sure enough, it was the same book in which she had lost interest.

She immediately began reading the book again, and this time she couldn’t put the book down.

She didn’t stop reading the book until she had finished.

What made the difference in this young lady’s attitude toward the same book?

She now was fascinated in the book because she had affection for and interest in the author.

”In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;” (Titus 1: 2)

To some, the Word of God, the Bible, may be nothing but fables, dull and confusing.

But to the one who personally knows the Author, the Book of life becomes fascinating to them, and they rejoice in the words of the One who wrote it.
