Dear Members and Visitors of the Site,
Greetings to you in the name of our LORD JESUS CHRIST. While i was meditating on BIBLE, this morning this thought flashed in my mind. Give a thought to it and let me know your view.
There is never an end to the knowledge or revelation one can obtain from meditating on scriptures. We already have plenty of commentaries, books on the website to refer from, as the helping aids in understanding scriptures. Each one of us come here either to download, upload modules. Very few are the original modules created by the members. Many of us take content from existing sources and making them into modules. All of us are doing our own BIBLE study with the help of downloaded modules. Each one of us are blessed with the SPIRIT of GOD to obtain fresh revelation from the scriptures as we dig them daily in our lives. The knowledge obtained either retained in ourselves or shared in closed groups, at times in open groups if any personal website was hosted on our name. The knowledge was not fed back to the system in my observation. it is like andaman & nicobar islands. thousands of tiny little islands with no attachment, but called under a single name. So much to count in number but weak in size and power. If all those island masses come together and join hands......
Today our group is very strong with member count more than 120,000 with believers and men/women of GOD. How about collecting our knowledge, experience and revelation on scriptures at one place on the site and creating a collaborative commentary on BIBLE from BIBLE support group?
- None of us as good as or as strong as our collective wisdom
- None of us will ever get complete revelation of a verse in BIBLE becuase it is not comprehendible by human mind. pieces connected together will give us the broad picture and helps us to humble ourselves before GOD.
- We can edify ourselves with the experiences of other believers. Even BIBLE encourages in ephesians to let the brothers dwell in unity
- So far commentaries were written in small groups or by one author. if such small groups and solo men can bless the body of CHRIST so much, think what kind of impact this large group can create for future generations.
- One may say it is messy if these many attempt to work on commentary. but if we let GOD take control nothing is impossible. we can come out of our denominational boundaries, self views and strive towards that notes that glorifies only GOD and HIM alone and no single person, organization or view. In my belief the true revelation born of GOD will be acceptable to all as we all accept JESUS CHRIST in common.
- We can keep refining the notes as we mature in our walk with the LORD and gain new insights into HIS scriptures. GOD said in HIS scripture that HE will counsel us with HIS eyes upon us.
- We will be leaving this as legacy to our present and following generation to feed on and get strenghtened in the inner man.
if we choose to work on it, we can work out a plan and bring better shape to it.
Regards
david.
