Intimate Moments: Teachings

Thompson Mashakeni and Mr. Ephraim Mokou discuss what the Word is and what the Bible teaches about it. The Bible presents God’s Word as living and powerful, sharper than any double-edged sword, able to penetrate deep into our hearts and spirits. It is the source of truth, guidance, salvation, and life (John 1:1; Hebrews 4:12). God’s Word reveals His will, brings spiritual growth, and equips believers to live faithfully. The Word calls for obedience and transforms lives by faith. It is both God’s message to humanity and a powerful force that changes hearts and circumstances. Intimate Moments
