Lesson 3911

 (3911)(10-03-22)  2nd Timothy 3:14-17

    “ But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 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, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.”

    Today’s quote tells us to continue in the true gospel of Jesus Christ while pushing back agains those who would convolute that same precious gospel.

    There is a lesson inside a lesson in today’s quote. Therein, Paul said, “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, FOR REPROOF, FOR CORRECTION, for instruction in righteousness”

     This tells us that we are to use the word of God to correct those who have wrongly interpreted its meaning and intent. This reflects back to another very important quote, “Study to shew thyself approved to God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, RIGHTLY DIVIDING the word of truth”. (2nd Timothy 2:15)~
