Is the Bible Still Relevant Today?steemCreated with Sketch.

For me it is still relevant in our time and age.

1. The Bible is GOD'S Words

2 Timothy 3:16-17 says: All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be.

If GOD is the Creator and we are His creatures/creation. Then the possibility of extinction to the creations is much larger than the extinction of the Creator. Since the Bible is GOD'S WORDS Himself, it will not expire. It has to do with the author. Take a look at other classic books and novels, the stories never died, you can still read them online but their authors are dead, what remains are their literary work. But in this case, the Author of the Bible is alive so His WORDS are coming to pass.

2. Majority of the prophecies are not fulfilled.

Take for example the coming of the LORD JESUS that has not taken place yet but it will. Because JESUS has promised that He will come back for His own.

Revelation 2:20 says: He who is the faithful witness to all these things says, "Yes, I am coming soon!" Amen! Come, Lord Jesus!

The LORD JESUS whose promises are true is not like a human being who breaks promises.

2 Peter 3:9 says: "The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish"

If He promises to come, then He will come. We are still yet to witness His faithfulness in coming again for His own. If we conclude now that the Bible is not relevant today then we will missed His coming for us.

3. The signs of the times as predicted in the Bible is all coming true.

2 Peter 3:2 says: For people will love only themselves and their money. They will be boastful and proud, scoffing at God, disobedient to their parents, and ungrateful. They will consider nothing sacred.

Basically three reasons for me why the Bible is still relevant today. I can go on and on and on. But these 3 are the most basic foundation why the Bible is the WORD OF GOD that is relevant yesterday, today and forever. 

I'm offering 1,000+ sermons in the bible, you may want to read it.
