The Symbols of the Inspired Book - 4

The Word is like a Pearl:

Matthew 7:6

Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces.

The Word is like an Anchor:

Hebrews 6:18-19

God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie,  we who have fled to take hold of the hope  set before us may be greatly encouraged.   We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain

The Word is like a Star:

2 Peter 1:19

We also have the prophetic message as something completely reliable,  and you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a light  shining in a dark place, until the day dawns  and the morning star  rises in your hearts.

The Word is like Meat:

Hebrews 5:14

But solid food is for the mature,  who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.

Spiritual Thoughts

  .. No one can believe how powerful prayer is and what it can effect, except those who have learned it by experience. - Martin Luther

.. If you learn to trust God with a child-like dependence on Him as your loving heavenly Father, no trouble can destroy you. - Billy Graham

.. Follow the path of serenity.  Why lose your temper if by losing it you offend God, trouble your neighbour, give yourself a bad time, and in the end have to set things aright anyway.

- Mother Teresa

.. When we depend on organizations, we get what organizations can do; when we depend on education, we get what education can do, when we depend on man, we get what man can do; but when we depend on prayer, we get what God can do. - A. C. Dixon

.. It ought to be as habitual to us to thank as to ask. - Charles Spurgeon
.. God can pick sense out of a confused prayer. - Richard Sibbes
