Tough Questions:
What’s the Big Deal with the Bible?

Speaker: Pastor Clark Pfaff 


Key Point: It’s inspired by the Holy Spirit.

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 teaches us to do what is right. 17 God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work. (2 Timothy 3:16-17, NLT) 

20 Above all, you must realize that no prophecy in Scripture ever came from the prophet’s own understanding, 21 or from human initiative. No, those prophets were moved by the Holy Spirit, and they spoke from God. (2 Peter 1:20-21, NLT)

 

Key Point: It’s perfect, without error.

Your laws are perfect and completely trustworthy.(Psalm 119:138, NLT)

Your justice is eternal, and your instructions are perfectly true. (Psalm 119:142, NLT)

 

Key Point: It’s authoritative in faith and conduct.

Therefore, we never stop thanking God that when you received his message from us, you didn’t think of our words as mere human ideas. You accepted what we said as the very word of God—which, of course, it is. And this word continues to work in you who believe. (1 Thessalonians 2:13, NLT)
