Greetings Dear Reader,
We at PracticalWord.com would
like to extend our warmest welcome to you and hope you will be greatly
encouraged and blessed as you read from the material available on our
site. You may be asking yourself right now, why is it that we chose to
call our site "Practical" word? Well, the answer is quite simple.
Some
people look at the Bible as a collection of sacred texts that are to be
highly revered. Others think that the book itself is sacred--as in the
cover, the paper that is used etc. Many consider the Bible to be a
religious book that is good to have in your book collection just like
any other book that you own.
We
at Practical Word believe that the texts in the Bible are sacred not
because of the book itself as in the paper used etc. but because we
believe that the Bible is the word of God.
We believe that the Bible is what it is because it was inspired by God as we read in 2
Timothy 3:16-17 "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is
profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in
righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished
unto all good works" (King James Version). What this means
is that we believe that the Bible is sacred because it's God's word--or
from God. Ultimately it is not the medium that it is on that matters so
if you have God's word on a parchment, sheep skin, regular paper or have
a Bible app the importance is the wonderful message that it contains.
We
don't look at the Bible as some book that must only be read by a select
few fanatic religious people, on the contrary, we believe that
everyone, all over the world should have a copy in their hands. It is a
book for people of all ages, nationalities and genders, a 'Practical'
guide for our daily living.
Furthermore, because it is the word of God, it has the power to change your life for the better permanently.
Join us along this wonderful journey into God's word and discover how you can apply its principles to your life in a Practical way.
