Old dog continuation....

2Pe 1:2 Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, 3 as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, 4 by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

These were the verses I left you with. The point of these verses for me is that everything that I as a person needs in relation to living my life morally, ethically and of course spiritually can be found through the direction of God the Father,and Jesus the Son. Jesus also tells us of the part that the Holy Spirit plays in accomplishing this in John 4:26, telling us that the Holy Spirit the Comforter who would indwell all believers "He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you. "

Another Bible verse that has once again spoken loudly to my heart is Hebrews 1:1-2, it reads, "God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets,2 has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds;"

This reaffirms to me the importance the supremacy of Jesus and my continuing need to get closer to Him. It also speaks to me of my responsibility to hear what He has to say. To me this is much more than just the simple intellectual or aural recognition of the words but the internal spiritual response. Allowing His word to impact my heart and then allowing the Holy Spirit to translate it into the daily attitudes and actions of my life.
