“All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness.”
All Scripture is God-breathed, given by His inspiration. The Word of God is not just a book or a compilation of man’s thoughts or philosophy. God inspired holy men to write the scripture passages and He takes full responsibility for their validity.
God’s Word has been given for teaching and helping people, for correcting and guiding them. The Scriptures show us how to live. Maybe we should know them better.
The Message Bible says: “Every part of Scripture is God-breathed and useful one way or another—showing us truth, exposing our rebellion, correcting our mistakes, training us to live God’s way.”
My barber once asked me, “How does anyone know the correct version of the scriptures?” My answer: the correct version or interpretation is the one that produces the same results the scriptures speak about.
When people are saved, healed and changed by the power of God, you can be assured that you understand it correctly.
God has given me the Scriptures so I can know Him and know how I am to live.
