Paul, the Apostle Encourages Young Timothy

11 Timothy 3:12-17 KJV

….and all that will live Godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution, but evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.  Continue in the things which you have learned and have been assured, knowing of whom you have learned them;  And that from a child you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

 

  • All scripture is given by inspiration of GOD
  • Profitable for doctrine
  • Profitable for Reproof
  • Profitable for Correction
  • Instruction in righteousness
  • That the man of GOD may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works

Question:

  1. Paul tells Timothy “that from a child you have know the Holy Scriptures”.  What Holy Scriptures was Paul referring?  The Hebrew Scriptures from Genesis to Malachi.
  2. How would the Holy Scriptures benefit Timothy?

Make him wise unto salvation through faith in Jesus Christ.  The Holy Scriptures must be coupled with faith in Jesus Christ.

Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things? And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.  And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
 

That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.


He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
 

For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.  John 3:11-21 (KJV)
 

The Conclusion: Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 
YHVH has spoken in these last days by whom? Hebrews ch. 1 
As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world. John 9:5 (KJV)
