The supremacy of God's word.
- Pastor Ashish Mathews
John 1.1
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
A well known author and pastor said, Homosexuality is not wrong, its okay. The question to be asked is, Who decides what's okay or not okay? What about what the Bible says? What about what God says? You see, in the beginning was the word of God. The word of God is supreme.
What do you do when famous, intellectual and brilliant people, in this case so called pastors make statements that are directly in opposition to God's word?. The word of God has more power, authority and status than anyone else. It doesn't matter who a person is or how many doctorate degrees they have, if what they say is against God's word then it cannot be accepted. God's word is above all men. God's word is above all institutions. God's word is above experiences, visions and dreams. God's word is supreme. God's word is above all cultures, all kingdoms and all constitutions. God's word is above all the thoughts, opinions, views, findings, discoveries, analysis and conclusions of men. Psalms 138. 2 says '..God has placed His word above all His name', which means God's word is above God. This is the supremacy of God's word. Jesus said to the Pharisees, you have given more importance to the commandments of men than to the word of God, you have given more preference to your traditions than to the word of the living God and by doing so you have nullified the word of God and made it of no effect. He said this is why the word doesn't work for you. No one and nothing is above God's word. Settle it.
Since the beginning of time, the word of God has been challenged and it will continue to be challenged by demonic and disagreeing forces, but let the word of God become supreme in your life for God's word is above all. God's word has stood and will stand against all odds, challenges and tests because heaven and earth will pass away but the word will stand for ever. Stand for the word of God and God will stand for you. The word of God decides whats right, whats wrong, what's okay and what's not okay. Anything contrary to God's word is a lie from hell irrespective of who said it or how many agree with it. Go on with Jesus!
"For me, what the word of God is says is more important than what people say. The word is the ultimate authority in my life. The word of God is my standard for living. The word is my life."
