2 Timothy 3:16-17
"All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work."
Have you ever wondered why Christians place such confidence in the Bible? Why have believers across centuries, cultures, and languages treated it as more than just an ancient collection of writings? The answer lies in a simple but profound truth: the Bible is inspired by God.
Now, when Christians say the Bible is inspired, we don’t just mean it’s inspiring like a beautiful sunset. We mean something much deeper. To understand this, we look at the foundational texts on the subject like 2 Timothy 3:16-17. The Apostle Paul writes: "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work."
That phrase "God-breathed" is important. It tells us that the ultimate source of Scripture isn't human creativity; the words were actually breathed out by God Himself.
