The Good News word of God

The Scriptures are filled with this peculiar phrase, and if we're not careful we can often unthinkingly gloss over these words without reflecting on them properly. After beginning a discussion on this topic last week, Terry continues to explore the nature of the word of God, this time demonstrating the way the word is revealed as the Gospel. When approached in the right way, the Bible points us beyond itself to Jesus.

What comes to mind when you hear the phrase “word of God”? The Scriptures are filled with this peculiar phrase, and their primary thrust points us to Jesus. If we’re not careful, we can unthinkingly skim over these words without reflecting on them as the Scriptures do.

Not just the Bible’s verses, but the whole story of Jesus is in view. The opportunity for followers of Jesus is to connect with the Word of God.
