Do not restrict what Abba can do because he is more capable than you can imagine: Value of the Book

Value of the Book

It is said that for those in the artistic and writing professions, the only time when your master pieces will increase several folds in monetary value is when you pass away. Of course, there is also the issue of whether did you die as a famous known celebrity in your professional circle versus an unknown loner. But in general, a painter's/writer's works increase in value only upon their death because it is assumed no one can replicate the same works anymore.

This reasoning sets me thinking. Did the value of the bible increase sharply after Jesus's death on the Cross? Did the value of the bible escalate to it's peak at Jesus's resurrection? Perhaps the Bible is the only "literal" creation to date where the Authors i.e. Abba and Jesus are still alive today and her value is appreciating perpetually.


Why do i say the Bible's value is appreciating all the time? You see here is the subtle difference. The mortal secular master pieces of art/writings usually communicate a fixed range of specific meanings; for instance a master painting or great literature work will only invoke a fix basket of emotions/interpretations/motifs such as e.g. grief, nostalgia etc regardless of how many different angles u view the masterpiece. But in the bible, the fresh daily revelations that hit you in the face is ever constantly evolving; a same phrase in the scriptures speaks differently to you in different predicaments daily as it is interpreted by your own holy spirit. The bible is the vassal which Abba speaks to you!!!
