A voice and a Word given for wisdom

The Holy Bible in Modern Greek translated by Neophytus Vamvas (Νεόφυτος Βάμβας): At Exodus 6:3 the divine name of God, the sacred Tetragrammaton, is rendered “Ιεοβά” (Ieová, that is “Yehova” (Eng.) or “Iehova” [Lat.], also “Ιεχωβά” [Gr.]). (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
The Divine Creator from the beginning of times gave by His Breath, a Voice and a Word. By His speaking, His Voice or His Word brought a promise to man and guaranteed that there is a very valuable treasure in His word to all of us. From the beginning of time man could hear the Voice of God and find His Words to guide him.  From one generation to the next God His Word was delivered to mankind. All people could hear it or could read it. We too have to hear or read that infallible Word of God, presented in 66 books collected in the Book of books, the Bible.

Pro 2:1-6 The Scriptures 1998+  (1)  My son, if you accept my words, And treasure up my commands with you,  (2)  So that you make your ear attend to wisdom, Incline your heart to understanding;  (3)  For if you cry for discernment, Lift up your voice for understanding,  (4)  If you seek her as silver, And search for her as hidden treasures,  (5)  Then you would understand the fear of יהוה  {Jehovah}, And find the knowledge of Elohim.  (6)  For יהוה  {Jehovah} gives wisdom; Out of His mouth come knowledge and understanding.

All those who look for the treasures in the world and have friendship with the world are looking at the wrong place. We may not forget that friendship with the world is enmity with God. In the world of man we can find wars and fightings among them. Is it not from here: from your pleasures warring in your body-parts?  How many of us do not have lots of desires which stay unfulfilled? Lots of people want lots of things and are even prepared to lie, steal or worse, to murder for it
Those who envy and cannot obtain, often go fight and make war for it, but followers of Christ and lovers of God do not behave in such manner. They recognise that whoever wants to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God.

Jas 4:1-4 The Scriptures 1998+  (1)  Where do fightings and strivings come from among you? Do they not come from your pleasures that battle in your members?  (2)  You desire, and do not have. You murder, and are jealous, and are unable to obtain. You strive and fight, and you do not possess, because you do not ask.  (3)  You ask and do not receive, because you ask evilly, in order to spend it on your pleasures.  (4)  Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with Elohim?1 Whoever therefore intends to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of Elohim. Footnote: 1Mt. 13:22, Lk. 4:5-6, Lk. 14:33, Rom. 12:2, 1 John 2:15-17.

For becoming a friend of God every one is invited to read the Bible , God’s infallible Word to the world.

When we see the things in the world, haters of God perhaps seemingly having it better than lovers of God, we do not have to worry and not to judge them. There is one lawgiver who is able to to rescue and to destroy, but we, who are we who judge the other man?

Jas 4:12 The Scriptures 1998+  (12)  There is one Lawgiver and Judge, who is able to save and to destroy. Who are you to judge another?

We should say,

“If the Lord wills, we shall both live, and do this or that”.

We also should be aware that the person who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it will be sin. (James 4:17) We should therefore be fully aware that as lovers of God we have to keep His commandments, given in the Holy Scriptures.
