Where to learn the truth

Being aware of the many denominations in Christendom you may wonder how it can be that there are so many different groups which all tell that they are the right church.

Best you can wonder where you can learn the will of God and the truth concerning Him, Christ, and the way we have to live.

You would be surprised most answers can be found in a compilation of very old books. It is a collection of 66 books which together make the greatest bestseller of all times.

Boeken van het Oude Testament – Books of the Old Testament

In the Book of books or Holy Scriptures, which are known in our day as the Bible you may find everything you need to know to make the best of your life. It is a book written by the power of inspiration working in prophets and apostles who lived in Israel a long time ago. They lived at different times, and each wrote his part independently of the others; but one Spirit moved them all, and enabled them to make known to men the mind of God in history, precept and prophecy, so that the Bible though composed of many books and parts, is the one Word of God.

Proof:

And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. (2 Tim. 3:15).

For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope. (Romans 15:4).

The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple. (Psa. 119:130).

But now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith: (Rom. 16:26).

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. (Psa. 119:105).

All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: (2 Tim. 3:16).

God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, (Heb. 1:1).

Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. (1 Cor. 2:13).

For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost. (2 Peter 1:21).

Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. (John 17:17).

If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord. (1 Cor. 14:37).
