**The Importance of Scripture**
“All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. ”
The Bible is God’s Word, a treasure trove of wisdom, guidance, and truth. It’s a lamp to our feet and a light to our path, illuminating the way forward. By studying Scripture, we come to know God better and understand His plan for our lives.
2 Timothy 3:16-17 states, “All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.” This verse emphasizes the practical value of Scripture in shaping our character and equipping us for service.
