II Peter 1: 20 21
Above all, you must understand that
no prophecy of Scripture came aboutby the prophets own interpretation.
For prophecy never had its origin in
the will of man, but men spoke fromGod as they were carried along bythe Holy Spirit.
In other words, men did not make up whatthey wrote in the Bible. They were inspiredby Gods Holy Spirit what to write. The same
Holy Spirit in the Christian interprets the Bible

A Testament Is A
Contract or Covenant
The Bible Has An Old
Testament and A NewTestament
God has made a contract with Christians; IF YOU WILL OBEY, THEN I
WILL BE YOUR GOD. Fundamental to Christianity is our willingness to
OBEY GOD. Too many Christians try to live good lives apart from GOD!!

A guilty Old Testament Israelite that sinned before God must offer a sacrificial
offering for his sins, in the way that God had appointed.1. The sinner goes out to his fields and selects a lamb, or a young calf, to be
his sacrificial offering.
2. He brings his sacrifice to the priest, and the priest inspects it, to be sure
that it is a perfect sacrifice, suitable for atonement.
3. The guilty man then lays his hands upon the animals head.4. Then the sacrificial animal is slain. The priest takes his blood and
sprinkles it upon the altar that is by the door of the tabernacle.All those elaborate ceremonies and sacrifices of the
Old Testament were designed by God to point men
to Christ, the true sacrifice for sin.

Jesus Speaking in the Book of Luke
The way to happiness is Obedience to God. People go through life seeking happiness in
many different ways. There is only ONE WAY to eternal happiness. Seek GODs direct
word rather than council from men. A DAILY habit of prayer and Bible study is
absolutely necessary.
Luke 11:28
Jesus replied, Blessed rather are thosewho hear the word of God and obey it.
