BECOMING SCRIPTURE
Paul, an apostle, made an interesting comment to the Corinthian church:“You yourselves are our letter, written on our hearts, known and read by everyone. You show that you are Christ’s letter, delivered by us, not written with ink but with the Spirit of the living God—not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.” (2 Corinthians 3:2-3)
Reading scripture and internalizing the message by the power of the Holy Spirit… we become “Christ’s letter’ to be read by others. This letter is not written with ink, but by the “Spirit of the living God.” It is written on “tablets of the human heart.” We Become the Scripture we read, believe and practice.
If we are not realizing the transformed life by allowing the Word and the Spirit to make us new and different in a Kingdom way… we might be sending out junk mail.
Junk mail is religious mail. It is letters that are not written by the Spirit of God on our hearts. If we don’t Become Scripture… ‘Return to Sender.’
“Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I am sending you.” Jesus
