Absolute or relative? This little question seems to be a popular one in regards to the Word of God, even in the Church. Is it an absolute authority, or is it merely a book filled with suggestions and preferences of God's will for His Children? Is it really trustworthy and reliable and backed by the integrity of the Almighty? Or should we accept the deception that we should lean on our own understanding and follow our own hearts? Paul says that in the last days, it will grow increasingly difficult to stay grounded in the Word of God as the sure foundation. People who profess Christ will be lovers of self, money, and pleasure instead of lovers of Christ! So if there is one thing we take away from this study, it is that no matter how enticing it might be, how much it makes sense, or how much it just feels right...we must never stray away from the sure footing of the Word of God!
