Oh my goodness!
If I could obtain a copy of the Bible in scroll format it would find a healthy home right next to my bed. It would be the last thing I touched every night, and first thing I looked at every morning. (I hope that doesn’t offend anyone. I know the traditional and honorable thing to do is to keep the Scrolls in a special cabinet. I guess that could be done.) Anyway
God gave us the antidote for the tough questions and answers in life, and for those found etched within the scrolls of His Word…. He said, “It is the glory of God to conceal a matter, and the honor of kings to search it out.” Hunting time is all year long when it comes to searching for the hidden treasures.
We as God’s family cannot edit doctrine motivated by self opinion, wounds, offenses, nor based on a specified personal stage of life. We must ask for the strength to stand for truth based on every Word which proceeded out of the mouth of God. True Christianity is not for cowards, its for the one who will ask for courage to embrace the truth. Painful at times? Yes. Hard to answer questions? Yes. Unable to figure out sometimes? Yes.
At each stage of personal growth we find that God shows us another facet of the hidden treasure. The way He designed our “Life School” is an incredible expression of His love. He gives us lessons of His Word in bite sizes. Every facet of the diamond is one perspective of His treasure.
As we remain committed to learning of His ways, we will realize that even as “the Word of God is pure, like the seven fold refining of silver; so too we will have learned seven dimensions of the depth of understanding for each truth found in scripture. Which dimension are you at? I think I’m on the first. Maybe 2nd on some truths…maybe?
Persistence is key. There is nothing boring about Christianity nor about “the gift of the hunt.” So keep those hunting boots on and dig deep for the gold infused stones used for building the foundations of His Kingdom.
Psalms 12: 6 says,
“The Words of the Lord are pure words.
As silver tried in the furnace on the earth,
purified seven times”
You and I can trust God and His ways. It takes a champion to embrace the truth. He has us covered. We are all champions, if we dare to tap into that part of our DNA. After all, we are all created in His image.
Psalms 18:30 says,
As for God, His way is blameless.
The Word of the Lord is tried;
He is a shield to all those who take refuge in Him.”
His written scrolls are the shield which we need for life. So lets get behind our shields and run the race with confident celebration that He has given us all we need to exercise the right to turn on the search light and hunt for truth.
