Did you know that we all come into this world as creations of God yet we are controlled by the Devil? One of the behaviors that we have and develop is to be liars. It was Jesus who said that the Devil is a liar and the father of liars. So it is that when we repent of our sins, receive forgiveness and start living for Christ we have to overcome the lies that we have lived with. The way He has given us to that with is His Word. As we listen to and read the Word of God His Holy Spirit is able to replace those lies and make us be conformed to the likeness of Christ. The more we fill our lives with the Word of God the more we will become like Christ. It is His Word that shapes our lives to do. His will for our lives.
      We must accept the Bible’s Authority. The Bible must be our standard of influence. Our compass in directing life’s transactions. It must become our advice for all the choices we make. The standard for assessing everything that has to do with our life. It is to be the first and last word in all of my life. For many they base their decisions by four ways: the culture (everybody is doing it.), Traditions ((that is the way it has always been done), Rationale (what seems most reasonable), Emotions (How I feel at the moment). We need something that will be a perfect standard. It is the Bible that says Proverbs 30:5 "Every word of God is pure."2 Tim. 3:16 "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:"
