And what IS the Bible? Not very many know what it is. LISTEN!
The Bible is a special revelation from the Creator GOD, by which
He reveals to man those basic necessary TRUTHS man does not know
naturally, and could never otherwise find out. It is a revelation,
then, of basic, essential KNOWLEDGE. It reveals what man is, how
man came, WHY man is, the PURPOSE of things, where we are going,
what lies on beyond. It reveals the basic spiritual LAWS OF LIFE.
It teaches man how to be happy, successful, prosperous---how to
live.
Those things which man can discover, learn and know by his
own efforts, God has left for man to learn. For example, man has
been able to invent instruments, set up laboratories. Man has been
able to discover that there are just so many elements of matter,
and to classify them. He is able to take water apart and discover
that it is composed of 2 atoms of hydrogen to each 1 atom of
oxygen. Man has discovered the laws of chemistry, laws of physics.
He has learned about astronomy thru telescopes, about small
divisions of matter thru microscopes. He has learned about force
and energy, about the law of inertia. Newton was able to discover
the law of gravity, so God did not reveal that law in the Bible---
He left that for man to discover himself.
Man can know, naturally, only what can be transmitted to his
mind thru the five senses---the eye, ear, nose, mouth, or sense of
touch and feel. But he cannot see, feel, hear, SPIRITUAL things.
So God has revealed the basic spiritual and material knowledge, and
from this revealed knowledge man could be able, if he would, to
explain and understand many things he sees but cannot otherwise
understand.
Now in the beginning, our first parents were willing to be
deceived into believing that GOD'S REVELATION was a lie. God had
said if they stole the fruit of the one tree which did not belong
to them, they would surely die. God revealed the way of LIFE---
made it available. Man, under Satan's influence, reasoned that
God had not told the Truth, rejected God's knowledge, refused God's
way of life, set out to live a different way.
Ever since man has rejected God's KNOWLEDGE---basic knowledge
---and consequently man's system of education today leads in the
exact OPPOSITE direction from the Truth that the "fear of the
Eternal" and the revelation of the BIBLE constitute the very BASIC
FOUNDATION OF TRUE EDUCATION. Instead man has set up an organized
system of education leading in the exact OPPOSITE DIRECTION.
And---LISTEN CAREFULLY!---the farther one goes in this
materialistic supposedly rational, but FALSE education of this
paganized babylonish world, the farther he gets from the TRUTH!
And finally he becomes so STEEPED in this false education, he is
utterly unable to UNlearn it, so he could start all over and begin
to receive the TRUTH. AND THAT IS WHY PEOPLE HIGHLY EDUCATED IN
THIS WORLD'S EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS ARE LARGELY ATHEISTS AND ARE
NOT ABLE TO ACCEPT TRUE CHRISTIANITY AND BE CONVERTED!
There are other faults with modern education. It teaches
people to believe in and accept this paganized system of this
