INSPIRED BY GOD!

2 TIMOTHY 3: 16

"All scripture is INSPIRED BY GOD and is useful to teach us what is true, and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives.  It corrects us when we are wrong and it teaches us to do what is right."

Even though the Holy Bible was written by many authors over many years there is one thing that makes it a unified document.  The One Truth Today is that "All scripture is INSPIRED BY GOD"!  As believer's we understand that every scripture was inspired by God and that He breathed the life into the Holy Bible through those who were the instruments of its writing.  The hands of the authors may have written the words but the inspiration came from Jesus Christ the Lord God!  That is the reason there are no errors in the Holy Bible.  It is the inerrant Word of an inerrant God.  It is profitable for instruction, reproof and conviction of sin and is the most important book ever written.  The Word of God is used to correct the errors in our lives and to teach us discipline and obedience.  Our lives can be INSPIRED BY GOD!

Without the Holy Bible how could a man of God be complete, proficient, adequate or equipped to do the work of the Lord?  It is because the Word is the Truth that we can be secure in knowing that God was the author of our manual for life.  We can find life changing correction and inspiration throughout the Bible.  Some just read the "red letter edition", the words of Jesus Christ.  Others rely on just the "New Testament".  Some pick and choose their favorite parts of the scripture and abandon the remainder.  It is our position that this is done at a great lose to the individual.   The real gain is when we realize that "all scripture" is useful and inspirational and supplied by God for our edification.  All of the Bible is INSPIRED BY GOD!

Do you read the Holy Bible from Genesis to Revelation on  a regular basis?  We recommend the one year Bible being read each year of  your life.  Do you study God's Word and place it in your heart and mind?  Are you ready to answer any question that may be asked of you about the Holy Scripture?  We need to have more than a cursory knowledge of the Word of God if we are to be His children and His believer's.  Teaching the Word to others can be one of the best ways to learn for yourself the Truth of God.  Find an outlet to share the Word with others and take the time to prepare for those moments.  Remembering always that whatever you write or say should be INSPIRED BY GOD!
