Calvary Baptist Church - Canyon Texas - David Crump, Pastor

Calvary 101 - Authority of Scripture The Bible was written by men borne along by the Holy Spirit. 2 Peter 2:20-21 The Bible is actually God’s words and His laws. Exodus 24:4 Jeremiah 36:2 The Bible is God’s instruction manual for how we’re supposed to do life, marriage, finances, sexuality, relationships, business, every facet of life. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 Life is never better as when we are surrendered and submitted to the authority of the Bible. Psalm 19:7-10 If we’re unwilling to take the Bible as authoritative, then we’re unable to call sin “sin”. You cannot offer grace and forgiveness if you cannot acknowledge sin. Acknowledging sin sets me up for grace and forgiveness. In places where the Bible is not authoritative, no one feels bad for their actions, but no one has any hope for anything better. - Andy Stanley Through the Bible, we can know Jesus Christ John 5:39 Luke 24:27
