Prove Test Examine Try

Not just some things 1 Samuel 15 – Saul Apollos – Acts 18:24 Everything needs proof

 Feelings - Pro. 28:26  Parents - Acts 7:51  Popularity - Exod. 23:2  Conscience - Titus 1:15  Others - 2 Cor. 10:12  Abolished Law - Col. 2:14

 Bible -1 Thes.5:21 “Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.” “If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God” 1 Pet.4:11 Words

"And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.“ John 8:32 The Bible contains all Truth

Truth is essential for Salvation Truth is Absolute  Does not depend on person  A body of doctrine  Must preach the Gospel

Some misuse the Bible 2 Tim. 2:15 - Rightly dividing 2 Pet. 3: twist, pervert Marbles Selling a Dog

Marbles “ Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,” John 5:28

Selling a Dog "You shall not bring the wages of a harlot or the price of a dog to the house of the LORD your God for any vowed offering, for both of these are an abomination to the LORD your God.” Deut. 23:18

Some misuse the Bible Satan - Matthew 4:1-11  Jesus was tempted  Satan used scripture  It was a misuse

1 Thess. 5:21 Good - that which is in the Bible “Buy the truth, and do not sell it,” Prov. 23:23a

We will be judged by the Bible
