Kill your Bible - Burn your church

Imagine you live in Eritrea - a predominantly muslim country. you have no Bible, but you believe in God.
Now ask yourself, "Why do i believe in God?"
The Bible is a very valuable tool. The words of God to our ancestors and to us preserved, and a good reference. When the Bible superceeds the living power of the living God it becomes a crutch. Like checks and balances the two must co-exist hand in hand. God is the god of now!
Do not believe just to believe in something! That is of no value. God is not looking for mindless worshippers anymore than he loves mindless worship. Why do you believe what you believe?
Who is God? Do you know? Really know??
. . .because our gospel came to you not simply with words, but also with power, with the Holy Spirit and with deep conviction. . . (Part passage 1 Thessalonians 1:5)
