How We Got the Bible...


God BREATHED it

All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness
-2 Timothy 3:16 (NIV)


Messengers RECORDED it

20 knowing this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture comes from someone's own interpretation. 21 For no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.
-2 Peter 1:20-21 (ESV)


The Church RECOGNIZED it

His letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.
-2 Peter 3:16b (NLT)


Scribes COPIED it

Shaphan the scribe also told the king, saying, “Hilkiah the kohen has given me a scroll.” Then Shaphan read it before the king.
-2 Kings 22:10 (TLV)


Scholars TRANSLATED it

And he gives us the power to live, to move, and to be who we are. “We are his children,” just as some of your poets have said.
-Acts 17:28 (CEV)


You can TRUST it

I am writing for you, mighty lover of God, an orderly account of what Jesus accomplished and fulfilled among us…It is appropriate for me to write this, for he also appeared to me so that I would reassure you beyond any shadow of a doubt the reliability of all you have been taught of him.
-Luke 1:1-4 (TPT)


FOR DISCUSSION:

Read 2 Kings 22:8–20 out loud. Then retell the passage in your own words. Then discuss the following questions:

  • What does this passage teach us about God?

  • What does this passage teach us about people?

  • If this is true, what should I do in response?

  • Who could I share this with?
