I believe . . .


I believe the Bible is true, but somehow I know it is not true because it is written, but it is written because it is true.
This ismuch more than a play on words. Maybe theologians and philosophers have sophisticated words for what I am trying to say . . . but
"TRUTH" that is God is beyond "explanation" and the mysteries of creation, and miracles, and divine inspiration cannot be reduced to catch phrases and even to true doctrine.
"TRUTH" is a Person. God has expressed His love for us by sending Jesus to be identified with us. This is THE profound miracle. If we believe that it is by revelation. All other true "facts" are of lesser importance...
The Bible exists to reveal Jesus...Jesus who said
"If you know Me you have seen the Father."
