The Importance of the Holy Scriptures
Colossians 3:16
16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom;
teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and
spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
I. What the Word of God Is
A. God’s View of His Word
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly....
B. Man’s View of the Word
God’s Word to us
Our word about God
II. Why the Word of God Matters
…in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing…
A. If God has not spoken, His promises are replaced by our wishes
You weaken the Word of God from the will of God to the wish of man
B. If God has not spoken, His truth is replaced by our opinion
C. If God has not spoken, His welcome is replaced by our journey
The Bible is full of invitations: (Isa. 55:3) (Jas. 4:8) (Isa. 1:18)
Do you see how much is at stake here? The basis of faith, hope,
and love all rest on God having spoken—giving us promises,
telling us who he is, inviting us into a relationship with himself,
and telling us how that is possible through his Son Jesus Christ.
