The Purposeful Word

2 Timothy 3:16-17  (ID: 3055)

Paul commanded Timothy, to hold to the Bible alone in his ministry, relying on its power to do God’s work. In this message, Alistair Begg expresses the same concern and provides examples of what can happen when church leaders lack this commitment to the truth of Scripture. When we truly believe the Bible, its teaching impacts both our beliefs and our behavior.
