Living Voice of God
Scripture is the ongoing rapport between heaven and earth, between Christ and his church, between God and his children. It does not just tie us to the past; it binds us to the living Lord in the heavens. It is the living voice of God, the letter of the omnipotent God to his creature... It was not only “God-breathed” at the time it was written; it is “God-breathing.”
