All Good Works

Here is something for us to think about. Suppose for a moment that a lawyer had a set of books that had all the answers to all legal matters, would he need a supplement? Suppose a mechanic had a book that had all the answers he needed in his work. Do you think that he would need another manual? For spiritual matters, we do have such a book. This book of course, is the Bible. It says in 2 Timothy 3:16-17, "All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work." The lawyer must buy new books because new laws and decisions are handed down daily. The mechanic must buy new books as new gadgets come out yearly. But God handed down a book that never needs revision. It has all the answers to our spiritual needs!

The Bible supplies us with every good work. If your practice cannot be found in the Bible, then it is not a good work as far as God is concerned. Any addition to a perfect revelation makes that book imperfect. Please let God's book, the Bible, direct your life in the ways you need to live and obey Him every day. Your eternal salvation depends on it.
