Our understanding of the story of the Scriptures greatly affects our daily lives. If we do not know what to do with our lives according to the will of God, how will we please Him and bring others to the realization of their need of a Savior? We are in Act Five of the Drama of the Bible. We are now called (Israel was first) to spread the Good News of Jesus' victory to all the nations (the Great Commission).
Alluding to Tyler's creative post, how will we know our part in the drama if we haven't read and understood the script? How can we learn from its history (the Old Testament) if we do not read and understand it? Warren Buffett (no idea who he is :) ) said, "What we learn from history is that people don't learn from history."
The same with the New Testament: if we do not read and understand that, we cannot bring others to Christ and glorify God. Then we will not be fulfilling our call.
Well, that was on my mind today for my second blog post. I hope it challenged you and made you think!
Signing off (with exactly 100 words), Zack
