Thomas Wagner January 27, 2003 1st period Essay The Bible was created to inspire people to live as Jesus did and as God would want them. The Bible teaches us lessons about life and we are supposed to carry these lessons and values out in our own life. For example, when one person wants another to do something for them, that person often tries to inspire the other person to do that action. This person does this, either through inspiring speeches, bargaining, or telling the other person some sort of story that will make him or her feel like it is the right thing to do. The Bible itself is a source of inspiration to most people who read it through its parables, stories, and prophecies. Many of the parables that Jesus told throughout his lifetime were meant to inspire people to live with values that God would want them to have. Parables that Jesus told, still today, are inspirational to people who read them. Jesus told parables to groups of people who would question Jesus and his teachings. Parables were a story that Jesus would tell that had a much deeper meaning then just the story itself.
