When a Facebook friend posted that we do not need "a book" to get to know Jesus, I was shocked. Since then, I have discovered there is a teaching growing in popularity telling people that if we rely on "the word" (God's words in the Bible) to teach us about "the Word" (Jesus, the Word who became flesh), that we are putting the Bible above Jesus. I could smell right away that something was off with that, so I am now reading that book and testing it by what God has written.
My conclusion is that God's word, the Bible, is the means by which we get to know God's Word, the Lord Jesus Christ. So, out on my prayer walk this morning, I was compelled to share one of the ways this has become so clear to me as I have ventured out on this challenging journey. And it was some love letters from 45 years ago that got me going.
