2 Peter 1:21

2 Peter 1:21

For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

Have you ever had someone tell you that the bible is written by men?  Well the holy scriptures are not just a book with words on a page, but the word of God, literally breathed out of the mouth of God.  The way that God inspires his word is not the way that a sunset inspires an artist, or a romance inspires a poet.  Instead the men of God are inspired by the working of the Holy Ghost.  The holy men of God actually use the words in which the Holy Spirit gives to them.  The miracle in the inspiration of the word is that the writers are writing the words in their own style, but the words that are used are the actual words that God wanted written down.  So the next time you read the word of God, remember these are the actual words that God wants you to read, and NOT the words of men.


Rejoicing in Grace,
Keith
