♥ Saved From The Fire!

The WORD of GOD is living and active. -Hebrews 4:12.
JESUS said, The Words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life. John 6 : 61, 63.

A farmer in South Korea had bought copies of the Gospels by Matthew and Luke and read them with interest. When he was working in the fields away from his home one day, his house caught fire and was totally destroyed. On returning, he could only ascertain that all the contents had been destroyed, except the two Gospels. Someone had saved them from the fire, not really knowing what they were.

That made a deep impression on the farmer. He read the two booklets again, now with increasing interest. Then he told the people in his village about them. At first his neighbors made fun of him and avoided him. But because he was always so friendly and helpful, they again began to make closer contact with him.

The result was that eighty villagers turned to JESUS CHRIST, and that because of the two booklets containing Matthew's and Luke's Gospels;  they never met a preacher of The Good News.

This shows once again that The WORD Of GOD possesses its own living and life giving power. Whoever reads The BIBLE attentively and is prepared to listen carefully to what GOD has to say will understand its message and receive the tons of blessings it contains.

"MY WORD...shall not return to me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it". -Isaiah 55 : 11.
