6 Psalm 19:7-14

7 The LORD continued to appear at Shiloh, and there he revealed himself to Samuel through his word.

8 To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, "If you hold to my teaching [My word], you are really my disciples. John 8:31

9 We did not follow cleverly invented stories when we told you about the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty. For he received honor and glory from God the Father when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, saying, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased." We ourselves heard this voice that came from heaven when we were with him on the sacred mountain. 2 Peter 1:16-18

10 And we have the word of the prophets made more certain, and you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a light shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts. Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet's own interpretation. For prophecy never had its origin in the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit. 2 Peter 1:19-21

11 Psalm 19:7-14

12 Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path.
Psalm 119:105

13 My comfort in my suffering is this: Your promise preserves my life.
Psalm 119:50

14 When your words came, I ate them; they were my joy and my heart's delight, for I bear your name, O LORD God Almighty. Jeremiah 15:16

15 Psalm 19:7-14

16 And the words of the LORD are flawless, like silver refined in a furnace of clay, purified seven times. Psalm 12:6

17 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
Mark 13:31

18 Psalm 19:7-14

19 The word of God is sufficient

21 God’s covenant with Israel defines there:
Calendar Holidays Diet Clothing Economy Employment practices Education Marriage and divorce Civil government Prayers Priestly sacrifices

22 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one
Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one. Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. Deuteronomy 6:4-5

23 God’s covenant with Israel was comprehensive

25 God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. God blessed them; and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” Genesis 1:27-28 And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.“ Matthew 28:18-20

26 Jesus commands us concerning:
The poor Sexual ethics Marriage and divorce Anger Love of enemies Taxes Fasting Anxiety Hypocrisy Treasures Treatment of children

27 The word of God is comprehensive

29 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6

30 Test me, O LORD, and try me, examine my heart and my mind;
Psalm 26:2

31 Your statutes are my delight; they are my counselors.
Psalm 119:24

32 God is presented as a counselor who is sufficient to meet any need

33

34 Whether, then, you eat or drink or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.
1 Corinthians 10:31

35 Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father. Colossians 3:17

36 Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men,
Colossians 3:23

37 God’s lordship is over everything

39 In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe. The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven. So he became as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs. Hebrews 1:1-4

40 2 Peter 1:3-11

41 The word of God is complete and thus sufficient

42

43 All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work. 2 Timothy 3:16-17

44 Beloved, while I was making every effort to write you about our common salvation, I felt the necessity to write to you appealing that you contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all handed down to the saints. Jude 1:3

45 Thus says the LORD of hosts, “Do not listen to the words of the prophets who are prophesying to you. They are leading you into futility; They speak a vision of their own imagination, Not from the mouth of the LORD.” Jeremiah 23:16

46 Scripture does not require additional special revelation
