2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
2 Timothy 3:16-17 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 perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
The Scriptures teach all the fundamentals of the faith and instruct in the deep things of God. They show us what’s wrong in our lives and teach us how to fix it. The Word of God, if read, believed and lived out will cause us to become more like Jesus.
We should never base our doctrine on feelings or experiences or on what someone we admire believed. Everything we believe and do should be based squarely on a clear Word from God, not on our own opinions, preferences or prejudices.
As you study the inspired Word of God, ask the Lord to reveal His truth. He will.
