I was sitting in church one Sunday morning,
probably 20 or so years ago, when the pastor invited those in need of
prayer to come to the front. I saw an elderly lady go forward for prayer
and two elders layed hands on her and started to pray. An amazing thing
happened at that point. It was like God somehow opened my eyes to the
supernatural and I could see what was happening in the spiritual. </div>

woman's needs are not being met." I felt compassion flow through me for
the woman and cried out "Why Lord?" He said to me "Because there is a
deception in the church that is very subtle, but is robbing the church
of its power." I cried out "Lord, what can this deception be?" He
replied "They have called the Bible the word of God, but that name has
been given to the One who is from the beginning." </div>
<div class="body_text" style="text-align: justify;">
I felt excited about what the Lord had shown me and couldn't wait to go home and search the Scriptures.</div>
<div class="body_text" style="text-align: justify;">
I should point out at this stage that when
God mentioned the church, He was talking about the church as a whole. I
am very aware of the fact that many, or even most, big time evangelists
call the Bible the word of God and have very successful ministries.
God's grace and purpose will always be there for mankind, but often
times He "winks", that is to say that He will overlook things in order
to achieve a purpose, but there is a better way. </div>

<b style="color: blue;">SEARCHING THE SCRIPTURES</b></div>
<div class="body_text" style="text-align: justify;">
As I started reading through Scripture it was
obvious that Jesus was and is The Word of God. I am sure no-one would
disagree with this. It is interesting to note that He is the Word of
God. The word is singular, meaning there is only one.</div>
<div class="body_text" style="text-align: justify;">
My study took me into Greek and Hebrew
lexicons and dictionaries and many times I had to go back to the Lord
and ask Him to shed light on things that I did not understand. He always
came through with answers that made sense, as you would expect. </div>
