If They Would Read Their Bibles

Bill Brinkworth

One of the most powerful, guiding, and life-changing books ever written is the Bible (KJV). If people would just read it, believe it, and obey it, this world would be much different. Here are some of the things that would happen.

More people would be saved and trust God’s only way to heaven.
There would be less sin. Crime would diminish. Fear would be less, as citizens would feel safer. People would want to do right!
Less governmental laws would be needed, as people would have God’s law instilled in them. They would naturally be more considerate of others, honest, and good citizens.
Jail expansion would not be necessary, and not as many police, welfare, and other government jobs would be necessary.
There would be less heartache and fewer ruined, broken lives.
Bible-believing and Bible-living churches would be full and expanding.
Churches that teach doctrines and traditions of man would be empty. Preachers that did not believe or preach the whole Word of God would be looking for honest jobs, because people would know what the Bible’s truth was and would refuse to listen to the false teachings spewed out by unbiblical preachers.
Cults would whither up and no longer spread their false teachings.
God would be pleased!

Sound utopian? Yes, it does, but the Word of God is powerful. Obedience to it has changed countless lives. Because of those obeying God’s commands: drunks have become sober; angry people have lost their rage; wife and children abusing husbands and fathers have become wonderful fathers and husbands; adulterers have become faithful, loyal spouses; criminals have become outstanding citizens. There is no life that would not be changed if they would only follow God’s commands and warnings preserved for them today in His Book, the Bible.
