A verse for 10/1/12





2Ti 3:16  All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
2Ti 3:17  That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.

Why is it that the word “Doctrine” holds such a stigma these days? I think that we are in a generation that wants to be entertained, and not taught.  We fear that someone will impose his or her ideas on us, and that may happen if you don’t study,   2Ti 2:15  Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth. 

Entertainment is the topic at hand these days, just visit most any household and the reading material of choice in their home is, most likely, the TV Guide, or now-a-days the guide on the remote.

Doctrine is teaching, plain and simple.   Joh 8:32  and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." If we don’t have doctrine then we can’t know the truth.

I know that I talk about Gods Sovereignty a lot, and that is because I want you to have “the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding.”  This month we will look, once again, at the fact that God is God and we are not!
