August 18 – That We May Know

“... from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.” 2 Timothy 3:15 (NIV)

It is a good practice to be thanking God for choosing people long ago to write the Bible messages which we need to know in order to become His children and His disciples. God inspired the writers and he also inspired those who have presented the writings and have passed them on to us.  And the purpose of all this is to make us wise for salvation. The Holy Scriptures which the Apostle Paul writes about in his second letter to Timothy has been given first to reveal that God has prepared and presented and offered a way to Himself – He has revealed what we must know in order to be saved. That is why we who are children of God give thanks for the Holy Bible because it is how we learn about all that God has done for us. Our promise today is that we can trust the Bible to guide us and teach us first for salvation and then for discipleship as we share what we have been taught.
