The Bible is our guide to following life in the way God intended. It shows us the ultimate example in Jesus’ life. It also give us hope and purpose beyond what we find in this time we live here. These are my findings as I journey through life.

The Way of God Church

For this sketch “The Way of God Church” I pulled from Ephesians 2:19-22. It does not refer to any specific Church. It points out that a truly Christian Church is “built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone.”

These three verses are packed with several truths. They show how we Jesus followers are “no longer strangers and aliens but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God.”

It also shows the connection between the New and Old Testaments in the statement that our faith is “built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets.”

Plus, it illustrates the essential role of “Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone, in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord.” Christ is the firm anchor for our faith from its beginning and into eternity!

One of the ways I (Stephen) study the Holy Bible is through simple drawings I make as I read or as the Holy Spirit brings images to my mind. For all my drawings I use my English Standard Version (ESV) Bible. It does not have commentary with it as many study Bible do, but, it does have 10,000 cross references. I like to use it as scripture defining scripture. I show my references in the drawing, look them up and see if in your spirit they are related to my drawing.

Guarantee

For this sketch “Guarantee” I pulled from 2 Corinthians 1:21-22 . These verses show the trinity and assures me to whom I belong. One of the ways I (Stephen) study the Holy Bible is through simple drawings I make as I read or as the Holy Spirit brings images to my mind. All my drawings are based on my English Standard Version (ESV) Bible without commentary, but, it does have 10,000 cross references. I view it as scripture defining scripture. I show my references in the drawing, look them up and see if they are related to my drawing.

Faith Doodle

For this sketch “faith” I pulled from the new and old covenants. One of the ways I (Stephen) study the Holy Bible is through simple drawings I make as I read and meditate or as the Holy Spirit brings images to my mind. The Bible for all my drawings are from my English Standard Version (ESV) without commentary, but, it does have 10,000 cross references. I view it as scripture defining scripture. Many of my doodles show the tie between the Old and New Testaments. I show my references in the drawing, look them up and see if they are related.

Jesus Saves!

It helps me (Stephen) to take time remembering what Jesus did for me and for mankind. It inspired me this morning to draw, with simple colored pencils, His journey to earth. Check it out when you have a minutes.
