Back to the Fundamentals

The Word of God is not a fairy tale but there is an happily ever after. It is not entended to be read as a form of entertainment, although there are entertaining accounts written, but as a survival guide. Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth. This Guide is designed to equip us with what to/not to do. The Bible is NOT outdated. Both past accounts as well as prophesies are written but ALL should be used. History merely repeats itself. It has all been done before. Nothing under the sun is truly new. Ecclesiates 1:9 NLT  If it happened once, it can happen again so you the Word to prepare yourself.

God is timeless; eternally in the past and future. Some have strayed away from the Word but this doesn't mean the Bible is outdated. It means some are disobedient and trying to fix something that was NEVER broken. God's Word is perfect because He is perfect. The Bible is THE foundation, THE fundamentals for our lives. No matter whom we are, we can't escape the fundamentals. 

Let's use a smaller fundamental; the alphabet.  Whether you've written a New York Times Best Seller or one who writes "love you" notes for your child's lunch box, you both have the same fundamentals; learning the alphabet. What you do with the fundamentals is completely up to you. You can take it and soar "on eagles wings" or choose to do nothing. The choice is yours. Choose ye this day. 

They know the truth about God because He has made it obvious to them. For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see His invisible qualities—His eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God. Romans 1:19-20

And the only way to be with God, our Father is through Jesus Christ. Jesus told him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me. John 14:6

And no one knows when the Lord will return except God.  “However, no one knows the day or hour when these things will happen, not even the angels in heaven or the Son himself. Only the Father knows. Matthew 24:36

So again, the Lord emphasizes, choose today whom you will serve. Joshua 24:15


In the name of Jesus, you will choose life, which is in Christ. This decision will allow you to see the Bible as a How-To guide, a reference book and not as non-fiction, sci-fi, fable, fantasy, an old wives tale or anything else UNREAL.
