Read Deuteronomy 4, Psalm 128-129, Acts 13
What are some things you have changed over time? Maybe a favorite recipe, a hobby, an exercise or workout routine? Some times change is good. It can freshen up things in our lives that cane become rote memory and we begin to neglect or put the focus on something like we did in the past. The Word of God however is something that we cannot change. It is perfect already and doesn’t need any corrections, additions, or deletions. In Deuteronomy 4 Moses tells the Israelites, “Do not add to what I command you and do not subtract from it, but keep the commands of the LORD your God that I give you” v. 2. Our culture is always tempting us to change our beliefs to agree with the world and that standard. When it comes down to it, we can only have one source of authority. It will either be the Bible or it will be the world. I once heard an apologist say, “Either the Bible informs your view of the culture or your view of culture informs your view of the Bible.” There are only two options.
