I
thank thee, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hidden
these things from the wise
and understanding and revealed them to babes; yea, Father, for such was
thy gracious will
The words of
Jesus came purely from the Father and God is His Father, therefore the
words of Jesus are the words of God. There is no need for Him to have a
divine inspiration from God because Jesus Christ himself is a divine
person. What He heard from the Father, He shared to His disciples. He
knew the mind of God. He is the
only word of God, image of God and the true and final mouthpiece of
God. Time and again, He claimed that His words are not His but of His
Father. Many books
and epistles are manmade, claiming to be sacred, holy and infallible.
This could not be possible for the writers of those books were
imperfect human beings. Divine
inspiration does not necessarily preclude perfection in the part of
the writers nor the things that were written. The books may bring
inspiration, encouragement and sometimes good counsel however, they
should not be glorified and worst be deified calling them to be part of
the word of God. There must be
only one Word of God and none other than the eternal Word, the Lord
Jesus Christ. The word of God is not the mass printed, most circulated,
and best selling book in the world.
