The Titles of Scripture

What the Bible Calls Itself: The Images of the Word of God

Scripture describes itself with a gallery of pictures: a lamp for the feet, a sword that pierces, a fire and a hammer, a mirror that shows us ourselves, milk and bread and seed. Each image reveals what the word of God does in us, and all of them point to the living Word, Jesus, who is Himself the Word made flesh. Each page below opens one image, with the real Scripture.
