"Learning how precious God's Holy Scriptures are to Him, and why they should be to us as well!"
Recorded on: Sunday, 08/16/2026 at 10:00 AM
Description:
Delivered during the Sunday Morning Worship Service, 8/16/2026. As we make our way through Paul's opening comments, we will continue to notice how he introduces in a concise and precise way some of the great doctrines of the faith. In this message our focus will turn to the doctrine of God's Holy Scriptures, remembering that in Paul's day these constituted what we would call the Old Testament. We will revisit the critical role the prophets played in these "Writings" and in particular the process of inspiration and revelation by which they were delivered. We will focus on how important the Old Testament Scriptures were to Paul and his ministry, and why he will continually refer to them throughout his letter. Ultimately we will realize that God's Word is just that-- God's inspired and revealed Word. For this reason we can be confident that it is both inerrant and infallible, sufficient and complete, authoritative and therefore necessary and essential. But primarily we will learn that these Holy Writings are precious to God, and therefore as His loving children-- they should be precious to us as well!
