Presentation transcript:

One of the causes of religious division is the failure to recognize that the Bible is the complete all sufficient revelation from God Creed books came from the idea of man that he could improve God's book and make it more intelligible This is an insult to the wisdom of God ALL SUFFICIENCY OF THE SCRIPTURES

THE POWER OF GOD'S WORD – God said and it was done - Gen 1 ten times (see also Jhn 1:1; Col 1:16 – Jesus spoke and it was done Matt 8:23-27; Jhn 11:38-46 – Word (Gospel) power to salvation Rom 1:16; 2Tim 3:15; Jas 1:21; Acts 20:32 – God's promises never fail 2Pet 3:9 Promise of coming of Christ: to serpent Gen 3:14,15; to Abraham Gen 12:1-3; To David 2Sam 7:12,16,17 Though over a thousand years intervened the promise was fulfilled Gal 3:16,17; 4:4,5 ALL SUFFICIENCY OF THE SCRIPTURES

THE SUFFICIENCY OF THE SCRIPTURES, THE REVELATION OF GOD'S WORD TODAY – Word revealed by the Holy Spirit that we might know the mind of God 1Cor 2:11-13 Holy men spake as moved by Holy Spirit 2Pet 1:21 Spirit brought all things to remembrance Jhn 14:26 Spirit guided apostles into all truth Jhn 16:13 Purpose of His work: to reveal God to man and this work has been finished ALL SUFFICIENCY OF THE SCRIPTURES

THE SUFFICIENCY OF THE SCRIPTURES, THE REVELATION OF GOD'S WORD TODAY – The revelation of God is then complete, perfect 2Pet 1:3; 2Tim 3:16,17; Jude 3 – The word of God does not become outdated by modern civilization Isa 40:8; Heb 4:12 Though customs change the same devil wars against men's souls 1Jhn 2:15,16 Temptations appear in different attire but we fall through the same avenues of lust men have always fallen Jas 1:13-15 ALL SUFFICIENCY OF THE SCRIPTURES

MAN IS FORBIDDEN TO GO BEYOND THE SCRIPTURES – Any who would speak another doctrine is accursed of God Gal 1:8,9 If we go beyond doctrine we have not God 2Jhn 9 Forbidden to add or subtract Rev 22:18,19 – If man's word conflicts with God's word then man is the liar not God Rom 3:4 Man cannot direct his own steps Jer 10:23; Isa 55:8,9; Prov 14:12 Though a man may think himself religious he may be lost Matt 7:21-23; 2Thess 2:9-12; 2Cor 11:13-15 We must walk by faith 2Cor 5:7 and faith comes by hearing God's word Rom 10:17; 1Pet 4:11 ALL SUFFICIENCY OF THE SCRIPTURES

Many religious people agree with these principles until shown from the Bible they are practicing vain religion Then they want to revert to the saying "Just so your heart is right with God it makes no difference." Surely ones heart must be right, but for it to be right one must be obedient to the all sufficient word of God 1Jhn 2:3-5; 5:3 ALL SUFFICIENCY OF THE SCRIPTURES
