Default Re: THE BIBLE

2Ti 3:16 Every scripture is divinely inspired, and profitable for teaching, for conviction, for correction, for instruction in righteousness;

2Pe 1:21 for prophecy was not ever uttered by the will of man, but holy men of God spake under the power of the Holy Spirit.

The first verse tells us how was Scripture given (by inspiration), the second how Scripture came (holy men of God spake under the power of the Holy Spirit)

It is interesting to note that Paul and Peter wrote these words while they were ready to depart from this earth.

2Ti 4:6 For *I* am already being poured out, and the time of my release is come.
2Ti 4:7 I have combated the good combat, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.

2Pe 1:14 knowing that the putting off of my tabernacle is speedily to take place , as also our Lord Jesus Christ has manifested to me;

For us who are still in this tabernacle, may the same Scriptures sustain, lead, preserve, build, nourish, wash, enlighten, us until we meet our Lord Jesus Christ.
