Basing our teaching on the Scriptures is vital because God's Word is alive and powerful (Heb. 4:12). By sharing biblical truths, we show that our message is rooted in divine wisdom, not our own ideas. This foundation gives us confidence, just as Paul boldly proclaimed the teachings of Christ (2 Tim. 4:2). When we open the Bible with others, we help them see the reliability and authority of God's message.
Why is it important to base our teaching on the Scriptures?The message of God’s Word has power. (Heb. 4:12) Christians today thus base their teachings on that Word, as did Jesus, Paul, and the other apostles. We too reason with people, explain what the Scriptures mean, and provide proof of what we teach by opening the Bible to show householders what it says. After all, the message we bring is not ours. By using the Bible liberally, we help people to discern that we proclaim, not our own ideas, but the teachings of God. Additionally, we do well to keep in mind that the message we preach is solidly founded on God’s Word. It is completely reliable. Does knowing that not give you confidence to share the message boldly, as Paul did?
