What does the Bible really mean by “believing?”

Thanks for stopping by! This is a really good article Jack. Thank you for expounding on how Holy God and His Word is. Indeed, the Bible is Holy and it does have power and life in it. It can melt the heart of stone. It can bring a dead soul to life. It can bring knowledge into doubt. It is the One and only source of real truth! God bless you brother! Thank you my brother. The power in His Word is enough to raise Lazarus from the dead and those who were dead in their sins like me.

Thank you for your encouraging words. This article make my heart dance! Thank you for working for our Lord Jesus Christ. I also was dead in my sin but now saved through His beautiful, powerful and Holy name. Thank you for this article, Jack. I pray that people truly believe that the Bible is a message from God and treat it as such. What could be more important than the Words of our Creator, Savior, and Sustianer? Sometimes it amazes me how flippantly some people regard the Bible. God bless you, brother. Keep up the good work.

Yours in Christ, Robert. As I told Emela. Every Word is eternal and precious and will abide for time without end.

A precious promise

Thank you so much Emela. What gracious words of encouragement sir. May God richly bless you and thank you and I thank God for you. The Roman Catholic own have more books than the Protestant and some other Church divisions have different ones too. I recall that the bilbe is God word,so if truly it is,which it is,why do the Catholic have more books than the Protestant?? Or they were written without the Holy spirit? OR they are Gods word? There should be one Holy and True Bible,which is the Word of God,with all the books complete,so I want to know which of the Bible it is.

Thank you my friend.

I believe it will clear it up nnadozie. I like this, but I also was wondering something else about the Bible. Why is it divided into verses?

What does the Bible really mean by “believing?”

In the Bible some spots are written like poetry but not all of it, so why use this term? Why is this word used? A division of a metrical composition, such as a stanza of a poem or hymn. The God of the old testament seems to be more harsh in His treatment of His children than the more loving forgiving God of the new testament.

God does not change. He is God and He will demand justice of all who reject the Son.

Did you get that? The Apostle Paul actually tells us that the scriptures are and allegory!

An allegory is defined as a story, poem, or picture that can be interpreted to reveal a hidden meaning, typically a moral or political meaning. The Bible is pure allegory, a powerful story that journeys through the psyche and spiritual journey of every individual who becomes born again. These characters are archetypes and they represent a part of us yet these concepts are only spiritually discerned. You must be illuminated with the white light of the Holy Spirit to understand such concepts.

This is repeated throughout the Scriptures, largely in the book of Corinthians. The Scriptures testify that the carnal mind cannot understand the things of the spirit for they are to be spiritually discerned. I remember the first time the Holy Spirit spoke to me on this matter as a young Christian and it was concerning the children of Israel which are a type and shadow of ones relationship with God.

While reading about their exodus out of the land of Egypt i. Even so I found myself at that moment daydreaming or reliving my former ways. This idea goes into very much detail as we analyze the life and trials of the Biblical Israelites as contrasted with our own thoughts and emotions.

It took a long time for me to understand and grasp the fact that the statement Jesus gives us is relevant for us as well. Not only does the Old Testament scripture testify of Jesus and his life but they also testify of the life of the believer as well. This does not diminish the effectiveness and power of the gospel or the validity of the Bible itself, but shows us that the power lies not in the existence of these Old Testament figures, but the power lies in understanding the stories, which are not literal.

This understanding should strengthen your faith in God who knows all and is in all. The Bible tells us in the book of James chapter 1: As we read or hear the word of God it reveals our hearts desires whether good or bad. This understanding also gives you the revelation of why the stories of the Israelites attacking and pillaging other nations in the Bible had some type of justification throughout these bloody stories.

They were not literal people.
