THE DOCTRINE OF GOD’S WORD (GOD BREATHED)

2 Timothy 3:16-17

We must recognize that God’s word is inspiring, as God's written revelation is believed to have been written under the supernatural influence of the Holy Spirit, making it the very word of God. This inspiration is understood as God "breathing out" His message, ensuring its truthfulness and authority. With this in mind, it brings us to the infallibility of God’s word. “The term 'infallible" means incapable of error or trustworthy. In the context of the Bible, it signifies that God's Word will not fail to accomplish its purpose and is a reliable guide for faith and life. God’s truthful word has no holes in it, which makes it inerrant. In other words, the Bible is completely free from error in the original manuscripts.

And the tempter came and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.” 4 But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.’” Matthew 4:3-4
