The POWER of SCRIPTURE

 

Isaiah 40:8

King James Version

8 The grass withereth, 

the flower fadeth: 

but the word of our God 

shall stand for ever.


Scoff not, at the seeming passivity of one such BOOK.

The BIBLE is the WORD of GOD.

Herein lies His TRUTH.

All who would love God, take heed.

All who would be saved, believe in JESUS -- the WORD of GOD.

Psalm 12:6

King James Version

6 The words of the Lord are pure words: 

as silver tried in a furnace of earth, 

purified seven times.


Isaiah 34:16-17

King James Version

16 Seek ye out of the book of the Lord, 

and read: 

no one of these shall fail, 

none shall want her mate: 

for my mouth it hath commanded, 

and his spirit it hath gathered them.

17 And he hath cast the lot for them, 

and his hand hath divided it unto them by line: 

they shall possess it for ever, 

from generation to generation 

shall they dwell therein.


Isaiah 55:11

King James Version

11 So shall my word be that goeth forth 

out of my mouth: 

it shall not return unto me void, 

but it shall accomplish that which I please, 

and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.


Matthew 4:4

King James Version

4 But he answered and said, 

It is written, 

Man shall not live by bread alone, 

but by every word that proceedeth 

out of the mouth of God.

28 But he said, 

Yea rather, 

blessed are they 

that hear the word of God, 

and keep it.


Luke 24:44-45

King James Version

44 And he said unto them, 

These are the words which I spake unto you, 

while I was yet with you, 

that all things must be fulfilled, 

which were written in the law of Moses, 

and in the prophets, 

and in the psalms, 

concerning me.

45 Then opened he their understanding, 

that they might understand the scriptures,


John 1:1-4

King James Version

1 In the beginning was the Word, 

and the Word was with God, 

and the Word was God.

2 The same was in the beginning with God.

3 All things were made by him; 

and without him was not any thing made 

that was made.

4 In him was life; 

and the life was the light of men.


John 1:14

King James Version

14 And the Word was made flesh, 

and dwelt among us, 

(and we beheld his glory, 

the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) 

full of grace and truth.

King James Version

38 And ye have not his word abiding in you: 

for whom he hath sent, 

him ye believe not.


John 5:39-40

King James Version

for in them ye think ye have eternal life:

 and they are they which testify of me.

40 And ye will not come to me, 

that ye might have life.


John 6:63-64

King James Version

63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; 

the flesh profiteth nothing: 

the words that I speak unto you, 

they are spirit, 

and they are life.

64 But there are some of you that believe not. 

For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were 

that believed not, 

and who should betray him.

in all wisdom; 

teaching and admonishing one another 

in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, 

singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.


1 Thessalonians 2:13

King James Version

13 For this cause also thank we God 

without ceasing, 

because, 

when ye received the word of God 

which ye heard of us, 

ye received it not as the word of men, 

but as it is in truth, 

the word of God, 

which effectually worketh also in you 

that believe.


2 Timothy 3:14-15

King James Version

14 But continue thou in the things 

which thou hast learned 

and hast been assured of, 

knowing of whom thou hast learned them;

15 And that from a child 

thou hast known the holy scriptures, 

which are able to make thee wise unto salvation 

through faith which is in Christ Jesus.


2 Timothy 3:16-17

King James Version

16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God,

for reproof, 

for correction, 

for instruction in righteousness:

17 That the man of God may be perfect, 

thoroughly furnished unto all good works.


Hebrews 4:12

King James Version

12 For the word of God is quick, 

and powerful, 

and sharper than any twoedged sword, 

piercing even to the dividing asunder 

of soul and spirit, 

and of the joints and marrow, 

and is a discerner of the thoughts 

and intents of the heart.


James 1:21-23

King James Version

21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness 

and superfluity of naughtiness, 

and receive with meekness the engrafted word, 

which is able to save your souls.

22 But be ye doers of the word, 

and not hearers only, 

deceiving your own selves.

23 For if any be a hearer of the word, 

and not a doer, 

he is like unto a man 

beholding his natural face 

in a glass:

And this is the word 

which by the gospel is preached unto you.

speaking in them of these things; 

in which are some things hard to be understood, 

which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, 

as they do also the other scriptures, 

unto their own destruction.


Revelation 1:1-3

King James Version

1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, 

which God gave unto him, 

to shew unto his servants things 

which must shortly come to pass; 

and he sent and signified it 

by his angel unto his servant John:

2 Who bare record of the word of God, 

and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, 

and of all things that he saw.

3 Blessed is he that readeth, 

and they that hear the words of this prophecy, 

and keep those things which are written therein: 

for the time is at hand.


Revelation 22:19

King James Version

19 And if any man shall take away 

from the words of the book of this prophecy, 

God shall take away his part out of the book of life, 

and out of the holy city, 

and from the things which are written in this book.
