The Sufficiency of Scripture

by Alistair Begg

Psalm 19:7–11
 (ID: 1887)

We know how essential Bible reading is to the Christian faith. But do we know how to apply it? As Alistair Begg demonstrates, the Bible’s message is not only relevant but also trustworthy, enlightening, rewarding, and sufficient to convert or revive our souls. By reading it, we come to know the mind and will of God. Do our lives display the importance we place on God’s Word?

Topics:
Psalm 19:7–11

7oThe law of the Lord is perfect,3

previving the soul;

qthe testimony of the Lord is rsure,

smaking wise tthe simple;

8uthe precepts of the Lord are right,

rejoicing the heart;

the commandment of the Lord is vpure,

wenlightening the eyes;

9the fear of the Lord is clean,

enduring forever;

the rules4 of the Lord are xtrue,

and righteous altogether.

10More to be desired are they than ygold,

even much zfine gold;

asweeter also than honey

and drippings of bthe honeycomb.

11Moreover, by them is your servant warned;

cin keeping them there is great reward.
