The Word is Life

“The word of God is living and active.” 2 Christ said, “The words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.” 3 Through the prophet He says, “Incline your ear, and come unto Me; hear, and your soul shall live.” 5 “Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God; and they that hear shall live.” That time had come in the days when the children of Israel were in the wilderness. In the giving of the manna He was teaching them that men could live only by “every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.” EVCO 231.1
