Christian's fellowship must be centred around God's Word, it will be meaningful and will not be in vain. We humble ourselves and take heed on God's Word, it can save us. God's Word will be with us for eternity. Many who had gone before us had suffered to have the Bible made available to everyone, so that we may have His Word freely.
Through God's Word there is salvation, joy and happiness, to prepare us to live a life that is truly glorifying to God.
1. People are willing to die for this book because of its origin - all scriptures is given by inspiration of God. 2 Tim 3:16. God is the author, God's breathe, through faithful servants over the centuries. Example, to understand the last book of Revelation, we need to know the first book of the Bible, to know the background - why man needed to pay the price of sin. This is the verbal plenary inspirations of God, everything single Word of God in the bible. This reflects God's omniscience nature. The accounts in the Bible are transparent, truthful and detailed for the benefits of believers for generations to come.
2. People are willing to die for this book because of its transmission - the Bible has lasted centuries. The first five books were write about 5,000 years ago; whereas the Gospel nearly 2,000 years ago. The Scriptures were passed down from ages to ages; protected from corruption by God. How do we know? God say so - Psalm 12:6-7. God has preserved His whole Word intact, we draw power from its 100% truth. Mathew 5:18 - God preserve even the last joy and tittle of His Word. This is God's verbal plenary preservation of His Word. There are corrupted manuscripts of the Bible to lead man astray. Our fore fathers had already respected them, as led by God. Take heed to ensure we go back to the right manuscript for the most faithful copy of His Word.
3. People are willing to die for his book because of its power - Is the Bible the very word of God? Does the Bible contain mistakes? Believe in the plenary preservation & inspiration and we will have the power from the the Word of God.
Thou art Christ, the Son of God, eternal truth in the past, the present and future. Experience God on our own, through His Word and life lessons, and we will know truely, God is the living God for each one of His believers.
