Pastor Kile Baker - October 2nd, 2022 Series Theme Verse: Hebrews 4:12-13 For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account. When it comes to who wrote the Bible: There is a human role and a divine role. Jesus’ view on who wrote scripture Scripture: John 5:45-47; Mark 7:9-1; Mark 12:35-36 (NIV) The New Testament writers on who wrote scripture Scripture: Matthew 1:22; Acts 1:15-16; Acts 28:23-25; Romans 9:25,29; Ephesians 2:19-20; 2 Timothy 3:16 -17 Inspiration is the process by which God directed individuals, incorporating their abilities and styles, to produce His message to humankind. Scripture: 2 Peter 1:8-12; 2 Peter 1:20-21 The work of the Holy Spirit - The spirit’s work of inspiration is finished, but his work of bringing believers to understand and receive the truth of Scripture through illumination continues.
