“’But the witness which I have
is greater than that of John; for the works which the Father has given Me to
accomplish, the very works that I do, bear witness of Me, that the Father has
sent Me. And the Father who sent Me, He
has borne witness of Me. You have
neither heard His voice at any time, nor seen His form. And you do not have His Word abiding in you,
for you do not believe Him whom He sent.
“’You search the Scriptures,
because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is these that bear
witness of Me; and you are unwilling to come to Me, that you may have life.’” John 5:36-40
“Is
there a hunger deep within you to know and love the Lord Jesus Christ better?
-- One of the ways our desire to know Christ will express itself is in a new
appetite for the Bible. The Bible
supremely is a revelation of Christ.
Take
care with love, especially His! Your
servant and friend in Christ, Darlene
