We can trust the Bible

KINDLY permit me to respond to the question: “Can the Bible be Trusted?” (Letter column, Sunday Chronicle June 19, 2011) Casamayor, St. Thomas.
Response:  Yes, the Bible can be trusted. In fact, all human beings (from Adam) will be judged by our Creator (Almighty God) according to the Holy Bible – King James Version (KJV) because:

(1) It spans from the beginning (Genesis 1:1) to the end (Revelation 21:1), and
(2) It is 100 per cent true and accurate – only for those who can understand it (Acts 8:30, 31)
On judgement day (1,000 years Rev 20:5-7) each human being will be examined with respect to God’s laws, precepts, testimonies, ordinance, statues, commandments, oracles, judgements and memorials (the correct answers to which can be found only in the Holy Bible (KJV).
It is unfortunate (for billions of people) that the Holy Bible (KJV) is not a novel, school text or science thesis. It can never be interpreted (2 Peter 1:20). Therefore, on our planet, it is the most difficult book to understand (Luke 24:45).
Because of the lack of understanding, for example, even millions who profess to be Christians cannot provide the correct answers to these biblical questions like:
(a) Name one of the secrets of God (Psalms 25:14 or Amos 3:7)
(b) State one of the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven (Matthew 13:11)
(c) How to worship in spirit?  Since we must worship God in spirit and in truth (John 4:24) – clue: Rev 1:10 and Romans 8:7-10.
(d) What is the ‘telephone number’ (communication by voice) of Christ Jesus, the Son of God? (Acts 22:7 and Rev 1:10, 12, 15) also gospel song: Central Never Busy by Joseph Niles.
Only few (Matthew 7:14) can correctly respond to the above and attest that the Holy Bible (KJV) is indeed truth and informs us about the true God (1 John 5:20). Few here (1 Peter 4:18) refers to those who:
(1) Keep all the commandments of God from Genesis to Revelation (Luke 1:6)
(2) Remember the Sabbath (7th) day to keep it holy (Exodus 2:2, 3 and Exodus 20:8), because
(a) It is the true Christian day of worship (Acts 13:27, 44 and Acts 18:4) – not Sunday (1st day). The Sunday assembly is to be attended only by baptised members of the church (born again) – John 3:7 for the communion service (Acts 20:7).
(b) It is one of the 10 commandments written with the finger of God and, therefore, cannot be changed, altered nor modified (Exodus 31:18 and Rev 22:18, 19)
(c) It is confirmed by voice and by our teacher, the Holy Spirit of Almighty God (John 14:26)
(3) Believe (John 20:29) and acknowledge that Christ Jesus is indeed the Son of God
Matthew (17:5) who is alive, but was dead and is alive forevermore (Revelation 1:18)
(4) Are taught by the Holy Spirit of God (2 (c) above); not by man (human beings) i.e. in schools of theology – where the blind is trying to lead the blind (Luke 6:39) (1 Timothy 1:7, Matthew 15:9)
(5) Know the dress code of Christians (Exodus 28:2, Revelation 3:5; 6:11)
When true Christians are sick, they have no need of doctors or hospitals. We follow Bible instructions (James 5:14, 15) and receive amazing deliverance from our great physician (Christ Jesus). Hence we can certify that all the miracles of healing recorded in the Bible (KJV) are true – because these same miracles are our present daily experiences (Mark 16:17 – 20).
So for now, we (who worship Christ Jesus Matthew 14:33) can only exhort our fellow human beings to stop rejecting and criticising the  greatest and most powerful book on our planet and begin, rather, to understand it; trust it and live by it, because, in so doing we shall be delivered from the day of vengeance (2 Thessalonians 1:7- 10).
PS:

1. It will always be a big lie to predict the day of judgement (Matthew 24:36)
2. Earthquakes, hurricanes, storms, tornadoes, tsunamis and the like are neither acts of nature or change of climate. They are in fact small samples of the characteristics of judgement day (Amos 3:6 and 2 Peter 3:7, 10)
3. This is truth (John 14:6)
4. There is absolutely nothing wrong with rejecting the teachings of the Bible (KJV) – Joshua 24:15; but those who do so must be prepared to receive the recompense of God which he has reserved for the disobedient children (Job 38:22, 23 and Jeremiah 7:16, 20, 28)
5. You mentioned the Catholics – kindly tell them (and others) that the true Bishops and Deacons (of the true God) can never be women (1 Corinthians 14:34). They all have to be husbands, each with one wife (1 Timothy 3:2, 12)
6. True Christians always worship, assemble and stand before Almighty God barefooted (shoes off) (Acts 7:33)
7. Conclusion: this is the only reason we, human beings, were created (Ecclesiastes 12:13)
