When I think of what it takes to get through life I think of a life founded in Christ Jesus. When I think about a life founded in Christ Jesus I think about a life built with the Word of God.
Many people ask me (as a minister) where to go in the Bible. I tell them the New Testament, after the death of Christ. Reason? We are there, Now. We are a New Testament body of believers. Our foundation is the person, the power, and presence of Christ Jesus, who died and rose from the grave. Our life is built upon the power of New Testament Truth. The New Testament of the Bible “confirms” the life we have in Christ Jesus…in a present evil world.
The Old Testament has its place. The four Gospels have their place. The New Testament Epistles show us and prove to us who Christ is and what He’s doing today…in the Church, God’s Spiritual body of Christians. All of God’s Word is to be rightly divided and not mixed up. All of God’s Word is to be put into proper perspective and not run together. All of God’s Word builds our faith on the foundation we have in Christ Jesus…through the Spirit of Truth.
A good foundation endures the storms of life. A good foundation hold’s up under pressure. A good foundation is deeply rooted and grounded in the Word of Truth. A good foundation is firmly laid by Christ to last the child of God, for a lifetime.

Since 1988 I’ve been writing and doing service for the Lord. It all began in 1987 after a personal walk began with the Lord. This personal walk with the Lord I speak of turned into extensive Bible studies and later evolved into blogging in early 2000. At present I write, author, and publish several different sites on the Internet. My Blogs contain a vast library of Theological writings, teaching videos, and preaching audios that currently go around the globe for the cause of Christ. I write at Christian Blessings on Wordpress, Holy Hubert Lindsey Group on Facebook, Churches on Trial at Google, publish You Tube videos, record sermons at holy.sermon.net, etc. I also pastor a Church called the Upper Room in Williamsburg, Ohio . My secular Blog called Southwestern Ohio Fishing on Wordpress is where I write about experiences with my son and fishing partner Chad where we together enjoy Mother Nature’s beauty mixed with Father God’s creation. At Southwestern Ohio Fishing Blog I also publish favorite recipes for those who enjoy eating and cooking as much as this writer does. Thanks for sharing your time and life with this writer at the Blogs. Here's more access to my ministry and fishing Blog if you'd care to check them out further.

You are so very correct that each part of the Holy Bible, the Word of God, has its proper function in the life of the Christian. Each part, like the various components of a strong building on a strong foundation, serve their correct purpose in the overall plan for our walk with Him! Praise Be to God!
