The number one resource is the
Bible, yes that's right, the
BIBLE!!!

The Bible is a supernatural book.
It gives understanding to the simplest seeker.
1
Thessalonians 2:13 says it not only gives understanding; but it also works that understanding into the depths of
our nature, progressively renewing our minds and altering our hearts and lives forever. " . . . the word of God . .
. performs its [supernatural] work in you who believe."
Jesus said, "I am
. . . the truth . . . " (John 14:6). He also said to His Father, "Thy word is truth" (John 17:17). And He said to
the Father, "Sanctify them through the truth." He called the Holy Spirit the Spirit of truth who would guide us
into all truth (John 16:13). Jesus said it is truth that sets us free.
"Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word,
then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" (John
8:31-32).
If the Word of God
is the truth; if Jesus is the truth; if the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of truth; if He will lead us into all truth;
if it is the truth that sanctifies us; if it is truth that sets us free, we should not be able to wait to abide in
His Word.
The only safeguard against deception is to know the entire Word of God backward and forward. If God's Word
says it, we can believe it. If man says it, I've got to see it in the Word—not just one place but many
places.
So dust of your bible and
start reading the manual of life, your future depends on it!! If you
don't have a bible, speak with Pastor Hardesty or one of the church Elders and they will see that you get
one.
You can also read the bible online if you
prefer.
