9.  Definitions?
 We can be told or we ourselves can take
a scripture out of context
 It doesn’t always mean what we have
understood is false, its not what the
Word of God was saying
 It is important because it can lead to
wrong beliefs and incorrect thoughts
about who God is, His Word and what
He is saying to us

10. HOW WE
SHOULD
APPROAC
H THE
WORD OF
GOD
 The Word of God is our foundation
Matthew 7 :24-27
24 “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built
his house on the rock. 25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that
house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. 26 But everyone who hears these words of
mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. 27 The rain came
down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.”
 It is infallible (is usually used to mean reliable and trustworthy)
2 Peter 1:19-21
19 We also have the prophetic message as something completely reliable, and you will do well to pay
attention to it, as to a light shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises
in your hearts. 20 Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the
prophet’s own interpretation of things. 21 For prophecy never had its origin in the human will, but
prophets, though human, spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.
2 Timothy 3:16-17
16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in
righteousness, 17 so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
 It is powerful and alive
 It is indisputable and the voice of God and not Man
 It is how we know the voice of God
 It does not contradict itself
 There no is ‘new revolution’
 We use the Word of God to form our beliefs, view of God and view of the Word itself
(Scripture interprets scripture)
 The Word of God isn’t about us we aren’t the hero or the protagonist. Before anything it
ese it about God so it’s not a how to guide on life. Everything points to Jesus

11. HOW TO
STUDY
 Pray and ask the Holy Spirit for
understanding
 Be humble and open for whatever God has to
say. Be willing to change your mind. Ask God
to change your heart.
 The Spirit is One.
 Mediate on the Word.
 A verse is never in isolation. It tells a story
and has a point.
Matt 4:9 And he said to Him, “All these things I will
give You if You will fall down and worship me.”
Luke 23:46 And when Jesus had cried out with a loud
voice, He said, “Father, ‘into Your hands I commit My
spirit.’ ” Having said this, He breathed His last.
 Walk out the scripture
 Test what people say

12. HOW TO STUDY

13. 1 Corinthians 14:1-4
 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a
resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom
all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do
not have love, I am nothing. 3 If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body
to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
Galatians 5:22-23
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness,
faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.

14. JOHN 18:21 TEST THE
WORD THAT IS GIVEN
TO YOU, GOD LOVES
THOSE WHO SEEK
HIS FACE.

15. Genesis 1:3
3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was
light.

16. 1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the
earth. 2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness
was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of
God was hovering over the waters.
3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was
light. 4 God saw that the light was good, and he separated
the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light “day,”
and the darkness he called “night.” And there was
evening, and there was morning—the first day.

17. 1 Timothy 2:12 New International Version
(NIV)
12 I do not permit a woman to teach or to
assume authority over a man; she must be
quiet.
Romans 1:27 and the men likewise gave up natural
relations with women and were consumed with passion
for one another, men committing shameless acts with
men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for
their error.
