📖 Infallibility & Benefits of Scriptures: Gives Wisdom that Leads to Eternal Life, 2 Tim 3:15, Inspired by God, 2 Tim 3:16, Encourages Trust, Unity

[Nochaeld]

God Grant The Us Your Church to Fully Believe and Understand Your Scriptures, Luke 24:44-45: Infallibility and Benefits of Scripture: Gives Wisdom that Leads to Eternal Life, 2 Tim 3:15, Inspired by God, 2 Tim 3:16, Encourages Trust, Authority of "God Who Cannot Lie," Titus 1:2, Hebrews 6:18, "Thus by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope set before us may be strongly encouraged," Numbers 23:19, "God is not a man, that He should lie, or a son of man, that He should change His mind. Does He speak and not act? Does He promise and not fulfill? 1 Samuel 15:29, "Moreover, the Glory of Israel does not lie or change His mind, for He is not a man, that He should change His mind.” The Scriptures Encourage Unity, as Jesus in The High Priestly Prayer Prays We Would All Be One, John 17:1-26, Unity in Christ, "Now I urge you, brothers and sisters, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all agree and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be made complete in the same mind and in the same judgment," 1 Cor 1:10, Perseverance, Filling Us with ALL JOY and PEACE in BELIEVING, that We Abound in Hope, Rom 15:4-13...

Father, Thank You for the command that You gave Your people to not bear false witness, even promising punishment to those who do so, Prov 19:5. We thank You for not only inspiring ALL The Scriptures, 2 Tim 3:16, but for guarding and preserving them through the ages by committing them to painstaking writing keeping them from the corruption of man and deceitfulness of the serpent for infallible accuracy -- As new archeological findings CONTINUE to reinforce that SURELY God Almighty is able to keep Your Word pure, as it is written, Luke 16:17, "But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for a single stroke of a pen to drop out of the Law," and Matthew 24:35, "Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away," and Luke 21:33, "Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away," and Psalm 12:6, "The words of the LORD are flawless, like silver refined in a furnace, like gold purified sevenfold," and Isaiah 40:8, "The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God stands forever."

Thank You that Jesus not only referred to Scripture as authoritative, unable to be broken, but "Jesus said to them, 'These are the words I spoke to you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about Me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets, and the Psalms. Then He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures,” Luke 24:44-45. "For 'The word of the Lord stands forever.' And this is the word that was proclaimed to you," 1 Peter 1:25. Peter continues to testify in his 2nd Epistle, "We also have the Word of the prophets as confirmed beyond doubt. And you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts. 20 Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture comes from one’s own interpretation. 21 For no such prophecy was ever brought forth by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit," 2 Peter 1:19-21. "Consider also that our Lord's patience brings salvation, AS OUR BELOVED BROTHER PAUL HAS WRITTEN, ACCORDING TO THE WISDOM GIVEN HIM FROM GOD. He writes the same way in ALL HIS LETTERS, speaking in them about such matters. Some parts of his letters are hard to understand, which untaught and unstable people distort, AS THEY DO THE REST OF THE SCRIPTURES, to their own destruction," 2 Peter 3:15-16.

"For EVERYTHING WRITTEN in earlier times WAS WRITTEN FOR OUR INSTRUCTION, so that through PERSEVERANCE and the ENCOURAGEMENT of THE SCRIPTURES, we might have hope. Now may the God who gives perseverance and encouragement grant us to be of the same mind with one another according to Christ Jesus, so that with one accord we may with one voice glorify Him as God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ," Rom 15:4-6. "And may the God of hope fill us with all joy and peace in BELIEVING, so that we all will abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit," Rom 15:13, Thank You for THE SCRIPTURES, inspired by The Holy Spirit, 2 Peter 1:19-21, help us "Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a worker who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the Word of Truth, 2 Tim 2:15, help us understand, Luke 24:45, believe, John 5:47, Luke 16:29-31, Heb 3:12 and be doers of the Word not merely hearers, James 1:22-23. LET FAITH COME FROM HEARING THE WORD, Rom 10:17, in Jesus' Name.

We join with you in thanking our Father for the priceless gift of His Word and we echo your prayer that He would grant us, His church, to fully believe and understand the Scriptures.

We rejoice in what you have declared so well, that the Scriptures are indeed infallible and profitable because they come from God Himself who cannot lie. As it is written, from infancy you have known the holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus, 2 Tim 3:15 and Every Scripture is God-breathed and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness, 2 Tim 3:16. We agree that we can trust every word because it rests on the authority of God who cannot lie, Titus 1:2, and that by two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled for refuge to take hold of the hope set before us may have a strong encouragement, Heb 6:18. For God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man, that he should repent, Num 23:19 and also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor repent, for he is not a man, that he should repent, 1 Sam 15:29.

We praise God with you that He has not only breathed out His Word but has sovereignly preserved it pure through the ages. The words of Yahweh are flawless words, as silver refined in a clay furnace, purified seven times, Psalm 12:6 and The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God stands forever, Isa 40:8. Our Lord Jesus affirmed this when He said Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will by no means pass away, Matt 24:35 and But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one tiny stroke of a pen in the law to fall, Luke 16:17.

We also join you in praying for unity and perseverance through the Scriptures. Jesus prayed in His high priestly prayer that we would all be one, John 17:21, and we are urged Now I beg you, brothers, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfected together in the same mind and in the same judgment, 1 Cor 1:10. For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that through perseverance and through encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope, Rom 15:4. We long for what you prayed, that the God of perseverance and of encouragement grant us to be of the same mind with one another according to Christ Jesus, that with one accord you may with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Rom 15:5-6 and that the God of hope will fill us with all joy and peace in believing, that we may abound in hope in the power of the Holy Spirit, Rom 15:13.

We thank God that Jesus Himself opened understanding to His disciples. He said to them, This is what I told you while I was still with you, that all things which are written in the law of Moses, the prophets, and the psalms concerning me must be fulfilled, Then he opened their minds, that they might understand the Scriptures, Luke 24:44-45. We need that same work today, for we know that no prophecy of Scripture is of private interpretation, for no prophecy ever came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke, being moved by the Holy Spirit, 2 Peter 1:20-21 and that our beloved brother Paul also wrote according to the wisdom given to him, and that the untaught and unstable distort his letters as they do also the other Scriptures to their own destruction, 2 Peter 3:15-16.

So we pray together with you now.

Father, we thank You that You have not left us in darkness but have given us a lamp shining in a dark place until the day dawns and the morning star arises in our hearts, 2 Peter 1:19. We thank You for commanding us not to bear false witness and for being Yourself the God of truth who guards Your Word from corruption. Forgive us where we have neglected Your Word or leaned on our own understanding. We ask that You open our minds to understand the Scriptures, Luke 24:45, that faith would come by hearing and hearing by the word of Christ, Rom 10:17. Help us to be diligent to present ourselves approved to God, a workman who does not need to be ashamed, properly handling the Word of Truth, 2 Tim 2:15. Help us not only to hear but to be doers of the word, not hearers only, deceiving ourselves, James 1:22, and to believe all that Moses and the Prophets have written, for if we do not believe his writings, how will we believe Your words, John 5:47. Let Your Word dwell richly in us that we may persevere, be encouraged, be unified, and abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit, and may we with one voice glorify You, the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. We ask this in the precious and only name by which we have access to You and by which we are saved, Jesus Christ our Lord, amen.

We were so encouraged to read your thanksgiving for Scripture. Your love for God's Word and your desire for your whole church to believe and understand it more deeply came through clearly, and we join you in that gratitude.

We thank God with you that He is a God who speaks and wants to be known. It is such a comfort that we can trust what He has said because it comes from who He is, faithful and unchanging, and that He has preserved His Word through generations so we can hear His voice and find wisdom that leads to life.

Your prayer for unity stayed with us as well. When a church is rooted together in the same Word, it shapes how we love one another and stay steady together with one mind and one voice to glorify Him.

One simple way we have seen that kind of prayer take root is to keep asking Him, as you read together, to open your minds to understand and to help you live what you hear. Even taking a few verses at a time and receiving them by thanking Him for what He has said can help His truth settle more deeply.

Father, we thank You for giving us Your Word and keeping it pure. We ask You to deepen trust and understanding in this church and to knit hearts together in unity in Christ. Fill Your people with joy and peace as they believe, that they may abound in hope by the power of Your Holy Spirit. In Jesus' name, amen.

Praying for this in Jesus Name.

 

[Spurgeon]

We join heartily in your thanksgiving for that Scripture which cannot be broken. There is an infinite majesty about every line of Scripture, but especially about that part in which the Lord reveals Himself and His glorious plan of saving grace in the person of His dear Son Jesus Christ, and we count ourselves thrice happy to bear reproach for the sake of the old faith which rests upon it.

Your prayer is most agreeable to the mind of God, for our Divine Lord Himself set us the example in reverence for the Word, saying that everything must be fulfilled that is written about Him in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms, and then He opened the minds of His disciples to understand the Scriptures. So we pray that He will do the same for you and for His whole church, that with clear understanding you may receive the Word not as the word of men but as it is in truth the Word of God.

We thank God with you that all Scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable, that it is able to make you wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus, and that it is as a lamp shining in a dark place until the day dawns. Men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit, and no prophecy of Scripture comes from one's own interpretation. Therefore let us trust and not be afraid, for the mouth of the Lord has spoken it. God is not a man that He should lie, and by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie we who have fled for refuge have strong encouragement to lay hold upon the hope set before us. Heaven and earth shall pass away, but His words shall never pass away, for the words of the Lord are flawless like silver refined in a furnace, like gold purified sevenfold, and the word of our God stands forever.

We pray also as you have asked that the God who gives perseverance and encouragement will grant you to be of the same mind with one another according to Christ Jesus, so that with one accord you may with one voice glorify God. Endeavour to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. This is not a unity of evil or of superstition, but the unity of those who have been washed in the blood of Christ and quickened by His Spirit. As we each grow more prepared by the work of Christ for our own place, we shall discover more and more the unity of the church for which our Saviour prayed that we all may be one.

And may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Believe God in the teeth of circumstances. Trust in the Lord and do good, so shall you dwell in the land and verily you shall be fed. Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a worker who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth, not merely hearing it but doing it, for faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of Christ.

We commend you to that faithful God whose promise must stand, praying that He will cause you to trust His Son at once and to know His love more fully, to your comfort and to His glory through Christ Jesus. Amen.
