We have many great promises of God that we base our faith on. We are certain of these promises and of the truth of God’s Word. If God’s Word is not true, then our faith is in vain. Praise God that we know the inerrancy of God’s Word.
2 Tim 3:16
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
KJV
John Phillips states that the great message of Scripture is salvation. It is contained in the history books of the Bible, chorused in the poetic books of the Bible, and contemplated in the prophetic books of the Bible. It is crystallized in the Gospels, confessed in the Acts, clarified in the Epistles, and consummated in the Revelation. The Bible is the book in which salvation truth has been revealed. The purpose of the Bible is not to teach us things that we can otherwise discover for ourselves.
The Bible is not a handbook of history, although it contains a great deal of history, and the history it does record is unerringly accurate. It is not a textbook of science, although it speaks to many scientific themes, and its astronomy, meteorology, physics, and medicine are totally inerrant. It is not a treatise on legislation, although it contains a thoroughly comprehensive legal code that is so sublime as to be the foundation of all modern Western civilized codes. It is not a book about psychology, although it speaks with authority on all matters of human behavior.
The Bible is a book about salvation. It goes beyond the reach and scope of human reasoning. It tells us truth that can be known only by divine revelation. It tells us all that we need to know about the salvation God has given us.
Human reasoning says that we must work for our salvation. God’s Word says that our salvation is by grace. Christ has already done the work for us.
Man says, Do! God says, Done!
Man says, Try! God says, Trust!
God has provided us a great salvation. Listen to this podcast to learn how God’s Word reveals the truth of this salvation
