They Had Cults Too!

As for this lesson of which entitles “They Had Cults Too!” and “The History of the Bible”, I have observed and acquired two things I learned while studying this lesson that also I have not known before this lesson was introduced, First was that I have not known that, Many people today or shall I say in general, that are “practical atheists” because they have not bothered to inquire about the existence and character of God, I may have not observed some of those in my community because I am born in to a Christian community and lifestyle, what I have not known about is that ignorance of people to whom who are not able to learn and know about these important things that talk about God and describing and letting us know more and more about Him. Another lesson that I have got in these discussion is that, there are many methods that God used in inspiring the writers of the Bible, 3 of which is: (1) Direct dictation (Deut. 9:10) (2) Human research (Luke 1:1-4) and last but not the least, (3) Spoken revelation (Gal. 1:12). I included this learning because at some point in my life, I have known that there was only one way of God revealing His Word upon his servants. And these methods show that God was in control of the recording of His Word.

            It made a change in my thinking about people having no knowledge about God’s existence and character, that people are really lost, they have not known what is needed to be known and the ignorance of people makes them lost and dark, these people needed God, people need God in order to have and capture that unfading beauty, and unending love and mercy and grace., another one is that God is very creative, He has not limited His power in making known His Word to us by doing such acts like those three (3) written above to have people know about His Word, and that in order for us to have the right thinking and right living.

            As to apply these learning that I have sought, I will never be stagnant in the ministry and directly obey what are the commandments of God, that to those who have not known God, let them be knowledgeable of. Inform that about God’s Word; share to them His love for them, and that by not surrendering even how cruel the people could be.
