Yes, we can understand the Bible alike!A. By the grace of God, I have a wonderful experience to prove this!1. Each year both of my daughters would send me birth day card. The younger one send by mail. The older one come to treat me a dinner and gave me the card in person with her husband and children together.2. This year an uncommonly thing happened! I received a birth day card by mail a few days before my actual birth day. On my birth day, my older daughter came to celebrate my birth day with her family. After dinner she personally gave me the card and sing happy birth day to me. I opened the envelop saw the card and said, this card looks familiar! She was very surprise and said, you saw this card before? I said, it looks like exactly the same card which I receive on the mail a few days ago from your younger sister! Let me see, if I am right! I searched for the card! Took it out and match them! They are exactly the same! Here they are! Please examine them. Size, design and every word written on them are the same! They are exactly the same card! Both of my daughters understand and see their father exactly the same! Immediately, I said, it is wonderful! This is a perfect example to prove, we can understand the word of the Lord alike!B. Understand the Bible alike is very important in all aspects of our lives!1. I am very thankful to my Father in heaven for giving me these wonderful daughters! This are things that make me feel that my live worth living!2. I prayed since I know how, I want to live a life that is worth living!3. There were different preachers, in the Bible such as Paul, Peter, John, Philip… They preached the same gospel seed and produce the same kind of churches!C. We all must understand and preach the word alike!1. But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let him be condemned! Gal.1:8 (Anyone reading NIV Bible, be aware! Original text doesn’t have eternally!) If they didn’t understand and preach the same, some of them be condemned! 2. If anyone speaks, he should do it as one speaking the very words of God…. If anyone understood and preached differently, he had put his word in the mouth of God! This would be enough reason for him to be condemned! 1 Peter 4:113. Jesus promised his disciples: John 16:12-14 I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear. But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. He will bring glory to me by taking from what is mine and making it known to you. a. If we failed to know the truth alike, we are say, Jesus didn’t keep his promise! b. If we can’t understand the word alike, we are saying, the Holy Spirit did not carry out what Jesus said!D. A horrible and shocking thing is happening! Jer.5:30-311. A horrible and shocking thing has happened in the land: The prophets preach lies, the priests rule by their own authority, and my people love it this way. But what will you do in the end? As we can see, today, in our world people are repeat exactly like this! Preachers are guaranteed to preach what they like! And people love it! I say, at the end this what we must do: run for our life!2. Do you know why the NIV Bible is the most common Bible in our world today? To me this is the most shocking and horrible thing happening right now! Now let me copy this verse from 3 versions of the Bible for you to see! NIV--> Pro.2:7 He holds victory in store for the upright, he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless. ASV--> Pro 2:7 He lays up sound wisdom for the upright; (He is) a shield to them that walk in integrity. KJV--> Pro 2:7 He lays up sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a buckler to them that walk uprightly.3. 2 Tim.4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears. E. Conclusion: Praise the Lord, He kept his promise! God lays up sound wisdom for those who are in the churches of Christ! 1500 years ago the Italian dare to tear down the name church of Christ. Today we dare to restore this precious name! We are determined to keep this name! Come join us and be blessed with us! Preach this on December 12, 2010.
