The Word of God does not come to us as a fragmented collection of spiritual tidbits for our devotional moments. No, it is a roaring fire, burning with clarity and authority over all of life. From the smallest whispers to the great rumblings of the world, the Bible speaks to every facet of human existence – and it does so with sufficiency, authority, and finality.
It has not been an unusual occurrence for someone in my congregation to wonder if that sermon illustration or that pointed warning was directed as a frontal assault on them.
