The Bible On Trial

Backstory~

With all of the issues presenting themselves constantly in the news today, it is sometimes easy to get so caught up in the minutia that our 'reason for being' (raison d'etre) gets lost in the clutter. Even when we do keep perspective and don't give in to worrying over the little thngs, the temptation is still there to lose consentration and let our thoughts wander hither and yon, taking 'main force' to bring us back to what is important, that 'thing' that keeps us on track and functioning at a high level. There is a peace that comes from 'knowing' that the thing that you worship is actually and unequivocably the truth, undiluted with lies that act as truth in our intellect, and keep us from accomplishing the process that will end with that very 'knowingness' that brings the peace of salvation via sanctification.

This describes the 'backstory' of salvation, and is the 'thing' that Jesus brought from His Father in Heaven to earth, and taught His own eyewitness disciples, who wrote that 'thing' down, and that God preserved for millenia, that makes it possible for those of us that now live in this modern and confusing world with all it's distractions to use as a filter that allows us to de-clutter our intellect in order to not just know truth, but to actually become the TRUTH by placing that 'thing' in our very being, such that there is no recognizable difference between us and the bringer of that 'light to the world'.

So what is that 'backstory', that 'thing' that Jesus brought to earth over 2,000 years ago, so that we could "have life, and have it more abundantly"? What is that 'thing', described as "the Light of the world", a dwelling place wherein we live.

That 'thing' is the WORDS of God, brought to earth by Jesus His Son.
