YOU DONT HAVE TO READ THE BIBLE!

Before you call me an heretic, LET ME EXPLAIN :)

Once i realized that, it made me totally free...
I prayed and pressed in to Gods presence, thats what we are many times told to do. So i thought that if i worship Him long enough, pray long enough, spend countless of hours meditating on His Word, He will finally come and fill me, meet me, reveal Himself to me. I thought that if ill search Him long enough ill find Him! But i had no real glue what searching Him ment...
And i tried, cause i was so hungry!
But almost nothing happened...
Im sorry to say but, yes i gave up pressing.

And then He gave me a truth that changed my life: HIS BLOOD.
Its not about what i do, its who i am! I am righteous by what Jesus did on the cross and nothing can ever change that. Doing all these things is good! But if we do it to get to God by what WE DO, its not enough. My own righteousness is like filthy rags. (Isaiah 64:6)
Its when i come to Him trough the blood of His Son Jesus, i can enter to His throneroom with boldness. Jesus was the acceptable sacrifice for my sins.
And im free.

So thats why i said that you dont HAVE TO read the Bible, but its when you understand that its the gift of God to you, Gods Word, your Life Guide, then you WANT TO read it. :)

"Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.
For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin.
Therefore let us draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need." Hebrews 4:14-16
