The
Word of God
Main Text: Heb. 4:12; John 1:1-5
Memory Verse: Romans 10:17
Introduction
You cannot really know God if you fail
to know his word. It is in His word you will know who He is, what He likes or
dislikes, His purpose concerning mankind and above all His love for humanity. The
Word of God has very important significance for the Christian life. When we read the Word of God, we become
familiar with what God is saying.

the word of God according to Hebrews 4:12 (Read also Eph. 6:17b).
- How does
the description of the Word of God apply to our everyday Christian life?
- What is the
meaning of the phrase “it
penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges
the thoughts and attitudes of the heart”? (Hebrews 4:12) NIV
- What is the
role of the Word in creation? (John 1:3)

Conclusion:
Apostle Paul wrote that the hearing,
reading, memorizing and meditating on God’s word helps in building our faith
and the formation of Christ’s life in the Christian. We therefore cannot call ourselves Christians if we don’t
feed on His word daily.
