NASB | 2 Timothy 3:16 All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 2 Timothy 3:16 All Scripture is God-breathed [given by divine inspiration] and is profitable for instruction, for conviction [of sin], for correction [of error and restoration to obedience], for training in righteousness [learning to live in conformity to God's will, both publicly and privately--behaving honorably with personal integrity and moral courage]; |
Bible Question:
How do we know when we are hearing from God versus when are hearing what we want to hear? From time to time disagreements arise between church members. People from both sides of the disagreement believe that they have prayed about the situation, but when they say what God revealed to them, "God's response" is different. I know that John chap. 10 talks about Christ's sheep who hear his voice, but in some disagreements, people from both sides are Godly people. How can I discern biblicly whose side of the disagreement to believe? |
Bible Answer: Baba, The bible tells us at 2 Timothy 3 that 16 All Scripture is inspired of God and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for disciplining in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be fully competent, completely equipped for every good work. God has said everything that we need to to know in order to live happy in his word the bible. There is no need to expect a voice to come out of heaven or into our heads. Many people would like to beleave that they are hearing Gods voice. But two things we need to realize is that, if God were going to talk to us personally then we wouldn't need the bible. Secondly if God were talking to us then why would everyone get a differant message. |
