“All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.” 2 Timothy 3:16-17
All Scripture is God’s unerring Word because it was given to us by God Himself through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Therefore, it is to be used as the source and judge of all our teaching, to reprove and correct error and sin in our lives, and to instruct us in how God would have us live as His dear children through faith in Jesus Christ.
God, grant that we hear, read, and study Holy Scripture as Your inspired Word, repent of all sin and error, look to Christ and His cross for pardon and forgiveness, and let Your Word guide us in living according to Your holy will. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
