It’s by the rhema word that we can know God subjectively, in our personal experience. He continues to speak today, and He wants to speak directly to us. His written word is a record of His speaking. Our God isn’t silent He’s a speaking God. The lesser-known of these two Greek words is rhema, which is used to refer to the instant, personal speaking of God. Knowing about God objectively is certainly a wonderful thing, but we can go further to know God on a personal level and experience Him subjectively. But we have to thank God for giving us the Bible, which communicates to us who He is and what He desires. We would be left to wonder or guess what His intention is. Without the logos, we would have no way to know God’s purpose, or our place in that purpose. When we read the written word, we can learn about God and know His ways, His salvation, and His plan for mankind. How incredible it is that we human beings can have God’s written word in our hands! In the New Testament, logos is used to refer to the constant, written word, which is recorded in the Bible. The more commonly known of these two Greek words is logos. That’s why we’re taking some time in this post to discuss logos and rhema and their importance to our Christian lives. Understanding the meaning of these two Greek words can help us know and experience God in a deeper way. Did you know that in Greek, the original language of the New Testament, two different Greek words are used to refer to the word of God? One is logos, and the other is rhema.
