Wherever We Land

If I had the power to change a law, I would ensure that the Bible—the living Word of God—would be available to everyone, everywhere. It would not be forced upon anyone, but it also could not be removed from places like schools, public buildings, or libraries. The Word of God would remain accessible to all who seek Him because God is free to all who believe. 

The Freedom to Seek Truth 

God gives us free will, and that includes the choice to believe in Him or not. However, in today’s world, there are increasing efforts to remove the Bible from public spaces, restricting access to the very book that offers wisdom, guidance, and salvation. My vision for this law would not impose belief on anyone but would ensure that no institution, government, or group could take away the right to freely read and study God’s Word. 

Scripture says, *“Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free”* (John 8:31-32, KJV). The truth of God’s Word brings freedom, and everyone should have the right to access it if they choose. 

A Light in Schools and Public Places 

One of the most heartbreaking changes in modern society has been the removal of the Bible from schools. The Bible is more than a religious text; it is history, literature, and a foundation of moral principles that have shaped civilizations for centuries. While students can bring their own Bibles, they often face resistance when openly reading it or praying. Under this law, Bibles would remain available in schools—not as a requirement, but as an option for those who desire to read and learn from it. 

Imagine a world where students could turn to Scripture for encouragement before a big test or where someone struggling could find comfort in God’s promises while sitting in a library. The Bible teaches values such as kindness, perseverance, and faith—all of which can benefit any society, regardless of religious belief. 

No Barrier to God’s Word 

In some parts of the world, people risk their lives to own a Bible. There are countries where Bibles are banned, and believers must meet in secret to read Scripture. My law would ensure that no government, organization, or authority could withhold the Bible from its people. The words of life should never be silenced, because God’s message is for all. 

Isaiah 55:11 reminds us, *“So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it”* (KJV). The Word of God carries power, and that power should never be locked away or hidden. 

A Law of Freedom, Not Force 

This law would not force anyone to read the Bible or believe in its teachings. Faith must be a personal choice, not an obligation. However, no one should have the power to strip away another person’s opportunity to seek God. The Bible would be available, visible, and welcomed—not as a government mandate, but as a sign that God’s truth is always within reach for those who seek it. 

The world may change, but *“Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever”* (Hebrews 13:8, KJV). As long as we have the freedom to read His Word, there is hope for transformation, revival, and a deeper connection with our Creator. 

If I had the power to change a law, I would ensure that the Bible could be found anywhere, just as God can be found anywhere—by anyone willing to seek Him.
