How Readest Thou? Part 2 God’s Word: Our Final Authority

The article below is part two of a series exploring both practical and purposeful approaches in studying God’s Word. Recently, Once Lost Ministries reached out to several seasoned believers, asking questions concerning their view and sincere study of Scripture in an effort to further equip and encourage believers from falling for any of the abundant pitfalls plaguing today’s “Christianity”.

“Every word of God is pure: He is a shield unto them that put their trust in Him” Proverbs 30:5

When the lawyer asked Jesus what he had to do to inherit eternal life, Jesus didn’t simply send him back to the Old Testament. Jesus took him deeper. He asked a very serious question with the purpose of exposing the lawyer’s heart. (Luke 10:26)

(Note: To assume that man is more powerful than God is ridiculous. That is something every believer agrees with.) 

This, of course, is simply an assumption…
