    About this ebook

    Remember now God is Spirit (Gospel of John 4:24) and it is the Spirit that bears witness because Spirit is truth. (1 John 5:6)
    So it was the Spirit of God who spoke by the mouth of the prophets of old, the apostles and yes Jesus the Christ. (Acts 1:2), (Ephesians 3:1-7)
    Also (Psalm 119:160) says: the entirety of Your word is truth.
    And Jesus said to our Father in the (Gospel of John 17:17) Sanctify them by Your truth, Your word is truth.
    This means the entirety of the Bible is God's word because it was the Spirit who bore witness in the holy men of God in the Bible.
    (Acts 1:16) says: the Holy Spirit spoke by the mouth of David.
    (Acts 28:25): The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through the prophet Isaiah.
    (Gospel of Luke 1:70): As He (God) spoke by the mouth of His Holy prophets who have been since the world began.
    Please don't forget what Jesus said in the (Gospel of John 18:37) Everyone who is of the truth hears my voice.
    So do you have ears to hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches through His word? (Hebrews 3:7-8), (Psalm 119:72 and 88,) (1 Kings 17:24), (Job 23:12), (Zachariah 7:12), (Ecclesiastes 12:10-11), (Nehemiah 9:30), (Hebrews 10.7), The Shepherd has said, the sheep hear my voice and they follow Me. (Gospel of John 10:4)

    Thomas Patterson

    Husband to my beautiful wife and a father of 2 daughters I live and work in the South where I am a CTO of a billion dollar company. My current position was an evolution within the company hiring in as an engineer a little over a decade ago and working my way up. I don't have many hobbies other than traveling, mowing the yard ( most of the time — something therapeutic about it ) and watching sports especially during the playoffs ( love the competition ). I find myself at a time where my curiosity is at all time high about almost everything from my job and its future for what I can do for the company and even outside of work of getting more involved in the community to learn more from others , but also share some of my experiences. I look forward to engaging with my followers and hopefully we will learn something from each other.

      The Bible Is Not The Word Of Men But The Word Of God - Thomas Patterson

      INTRODUCTION

      The title of this book, THE BIBLE IS NOT THE WORD OF MEN, BUT THE WORD OF GOD. Is actually one of seven meditations I gave by the leading of the Holy Spirit in the presence of the body of Christ on Sunday mornings, here at Trenton State Prison. This was done over a seven-year period between 2000 and 2007. These meditations were done to enlighten, encourage, edify and comfort.

      But to those who are stumbling being disobedient to His word. My prayer is that you turn at His rebuke so that He will pour His Spirit upon you and make His words known to you. That He would write His word in your heart and in your mind. So you would be written epistles known and read by men.

      Yes, that you would speak His word boldly that it would be manifested so that souls would be saved in Jesus name.

      And let us speak the truth to one another in love, for it is the word which will judge us all in the last day. *(Gospel of John 12:48).

      Grace, Peace, and Love

      To you and your families

      Thomas

      GRACE & PEACE

      BORN AGAIN AND PRAYER FOR SALVATION

      Jesus said, most assuredly, I say unto you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God *(Gospel of John 3:1-7)

      The Holy Spirit speaking through Peter said, having been born again, not of corruptible seed, but incorruptible, through the word of God which lives and abides forever. *(I Peter 1:23).

      Now Christ is the incorruptible Seed *(Galatians 3:16 and verse 29) and we are made up of the dust of the earth *(Genesis 2:7) and you will receive this Seed the Holy Spirit, Christ in you, when you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with your mouth confession is made unto salvation according to *(Romans 10:9-10).

      So to get this Seed to grow, which is in the dust of the earth, water it with the living water, which is the living word *(Gospel of John 4:10-14, 7:37-39) (Ephesians 5:25-26) (II Thessalonians 2:13) (Gospel of John 17:17) Remember Paul planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase. (I Corinthians 3:6) And he who wins souls is wise *(Proverbs 11:30)

      Make sure you and your family are saved and then reach out to all people as the Holy Spirit leads you. Grace and Peace and may the Lord bless you in all your trials and tribulations that you endure. *(Acts 14:22) (II Thessalonians 1:3-6).

      PRAYER FOR SALVATION

      According to *(Romans 10:9-10)

      Dear God,

      I admit that I am a sinner, and I ask you to forgive me and Save me. O God, I heard about Jesus: That He died, that He was buried, and that you raised Him from the dead. I believe that you sent Jesus to suffer all of these things, so that I might be saved. Therefore, I now receive Jesus Christ, by faith, as my personal savior and my Lord, with gratitude for the great sacrifice of Himself for me.

      Lord Jesus, I ask you to now come into my spirit, soul and body in all Your fullness. Live your life in me and take full control of my ways. Change me from this moment on; anoint me with Your Holy Spirit and with power, and make me a Child of God. I now confess with my mouth, and I believe in my heart that my prayer has been answered. God is now my Father, and Jesus Christ is now my Lord and Savior.

      Thank you Father, and Thank you Lord Jesus Christ that you heard, my prayer and have made me your own. AMEN

      THIS PRAYER IS THE PRAYER I SAID WHEN I TRULY BECAME BORN AGAIN.

      THE BIBLE IS NOT THE WORD OF MEN BUT THE WORD OF GOD

      In the book of *(Revelation 2:11) God is speaking for God is Spirit. *(Gospel of John 4:24). Now in *(Revelation 2:11) the Spirit of God says: He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

      Do you know that every word in the Bible was spoken by the Spirit of God. So as the Spirit was speaking to the churches in the book of Revelation, the Spirit is speaking to the church today. For we read in *(I John 5:6), it is the Spirit that bears witness because the Spirit is truth. Therefore it was the Spirit of God who bore witness through the prophets of old. *(Nehemiah 9:30): Yet for many years you had patience with them, and testified against them by your Spirit in your prophets.

      *(Gospel of Luke 1:70) says: As He spoke by the mouth of His holy prophets who have been since the world began. Also the Spirit of Christ which is the Spirit of God was in the prophets of old. Let’s look at *(I Peter 1: 10-12): of this salvation the prophets have inquired and searched carefully, who prophesied of the grace that would come to you, searching what, or what manner of time, the Spirit of Christ who was in them was indicating when He testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ and the glories that would follow. To them it was revealed that not to themselves, but to us they were ministering the things which now have been reported to you through those who have preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven, things which angels desired to look into.

      The Spirit spoke through the
