The Bible: A Book You Can Trust

Proof of Inspiration Unity of the message – Prophecies verified (Isa 46:9-10) – Moral standard of highest nature – Archeological confirmation – Manuscript evidence –

Facts about Inspiration “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God” God-breathed out the Scripture: Old and New (2 Tim 3:15; Acts 1:16; 2 Pet 3:16; 1 Tim 5:18; cf. Deut 25:4; Luke 10:7) Revealed: to take off the cover, disclose (1 Cor 2:4-10) “Revelation” was governed by “Inspiration”

“All Scripture is given by inspiration of God” Facts about Inspiration “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God” Came through men & their unique qualities (1 Cor 2:4-10; 2 Pet 1:20-21) Inspiration ensured accuracy of facts known & unknown (Lk 1:1-4; 1 Jn 1:1-2)

Passages about Inspiration The Person Of Inspiration – Jesus, the Son of God (Heb 1:1-2; 4:14)

Passages about Inspiration The Promises Of Inspiration – The Holy Spirit (John 14-16) To Remind the apostles (14:25-26) To Testify of Jesus’ works (15:26-27) To Convict the World (16:7-11) To Guide into All Truth (16:12-15)

Passages about Inspiration The Process Of Inspiration – The Holy Spirit searched God’s mind (1 Cor 2:10-13) To Reveal the mind of God (2:10-12) To Receive the things of God (2:12) To Speak the teachings of God (2:13) “…for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit” (2 Pet 1:21).

Implications about Inspiration We Should Receive It & Welcome It (1 Thess 2:13) We Should Live By It (2 Tim 3:15-16) We Should Anticipate Seeing It (John 12:48; Rom 2:16; 2 Cor 5:10; Rev 20:11-15)
