The Owner's Manual
|
The Creator
|
Throughout history, God has communicated with us, His creation, in various ways. The Bible has been His main method of revealing Himself to us. Many have claimed they've received direct communication from God, but few have been able to show tangible evidence. The Bible, however, has proven itself repeatedly in its predictions coming true and its knowledge of things no human could have foreseen. Written by divine inspiration, it is not only the Owner's Manual for a Human Life, but the User's Guide to a Christian Life. If you want to know Who God is, what He's like, and even know His Son Jesus personally, you must read the Owner's Manual. It is the only absolutely reliable source He has provided for you. Though many throughout history have disagreed on interpretations of the Book,
its basic message is clear enough for any child to understand. It is only when
Christians - or often those who wrongly use that name - have disobeyed, ignored,
changed or added their own rules to that basic message that divisions have occurred.

That basic message
|
Although it is based on factual information, not philosophical theories nor myth, the Bible is also the ultimate guide for how best to live here on Earth. Who better to write the Manual than the Designer of the product? The facts include that there is one God, Creator of the universe, Who has always existed in three Persons; the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. The fact that mankind was separated from God by sin. Then there is the historical fact of Jesus' birth, life on Earth, death, and resurrection; and the fact that this was God's plan to close that separation. The fact that faith in Jesus Christ alone is what is needed to heal the separation for each individual. No amount of good deeds will suffice, it is the faith that saves you from eternal separation with your Maker. Good deeds are a result of the faith in Christ, not the condition for entrance to Heaven. The fact that Jesus promised another Counselor, the Holy Spirit, to live in the hearts of all who seek a relationship with Him. All these are facts, but they have no relevance to us unless we embrace them through faith by beginning a relationship with the One who paid your ransom for you...
