 Musick-al note # 57                First, Love the Truth.  You will find that for which you seek.  If you love error then that is what you will find.  Jesus said that God’s Word is truth (John 17:17) but perverting His word will not reveal truth (2 Peter 3:16) however a perverted truth will concealContinue reading “RESPONSIBILITY IN BIBLE STUDY”

Musick-al note # 56      When we study the Bible and understand it properly, the Bible reveals everything men need to know about the ultimate reality of life (2 Peter 1:3). Through it, men learn how to gain peace of mind, to effectively meet the difficulties, temptations and stresses of life. Its teaching can improveContinue reading “FOLLOWING GOD’S WORD”

Musick-al Note # 55           The Bible is our guide to eternity with God. David said, “Your Word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path” (Psalms 119:105).  The following of God’s teachings as revealed in the Bible is of utmost importance to those who would make heaven their home.  GodContinue reading “THE BIBLE IS OUR GUIDE”

Musick-al note # 54       Like a mighty beacon mounted high on the crest of a precipitous cliff, above a treacherous shore, the Book of the Ages continues to shine and warn of deceitful doctrines to travelers in this world. It gives the history of mankind from the beginning and its truths continue to giveContinue reading “THE GREATNESS OF THE BIBLE”

Musick-al note # 53       In appreciation and thanks to Larry Walker who sent this note to me about three years ago. It deserves a reading by all who love truth.     Gordon       Paul was astonished that the Galatians were deserting the One who called them to live in the grace of Christ and wereContinue reading “LARRY WALKER ON GALATIANS”

Musick-al note # 52                                     My effort in writing these ‘notes’ and giving them out is designed to cause you to study the Bible and follow its teaching.  If you really desire eternal life, the only book that can direct you is the Bible which must be believed and followed. The Old Testament reveals theContinue reading “MORE ABOUT BIBLE STUDY”

Musick-al note  # 51                                                There are doctrines that contradict the New Testament (Christ’s will). These doctrines taught by men will render’s one’s worship vain. (Matt. 15:9).  This means we must learn about God and Jesus to obtain eternal life (John 17:3).  His Word teaches us what we must do to become a Christian.Continue reading “BIBLE STUDY”

Another Musick-al note   #  50           Friend, what is your Bible for?  Surely God wants His word to be preserved, translated and circulated, but WHY?  Why did He give it?  What obligations does He require toward it?          Many have a Bible because they believe that it should adorn their living room.  Others think ofContinue reading “WHAT IS YOUR BIBLE FOR?”

Another Musick-al Note:    # 49                                                        If a person takes a package to the Post Office to mail to a friend, the clerk will weigh the package and from his rate book obtain the amount of postage.  You may not be pleased, think the amount is too high, but usually one will pay theContinue reading “USE THE SAME STANDARD OF AUTHORITY”

Another Musick-al note:  #  48          Paul wrote in Ephesians 2:8-9, “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.”  All who enter heaven will do so by the grace of God.  Works of righteousness, goodness, moralityContinue reading “SALVATION – GRACE THROUGH FAITH”
