The Scriptures Inspired
2 Tim. 3:1-17 (KJV)
This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. [2]
For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters,
proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, [3]
Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers,
incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, [4] Traitors,
heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; [5]
Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such
turn away. [6] For of this sort are they which creep into houses,
and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers
lusts, [7] Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of
the truth. [8] Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do
these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate
concerning the faith. [9] But they shall proceed no further: for
their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was. [10]
But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose,
faith, longsuffering, charity, patience, [11] Persecutions,
afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra;
what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered
me. [12] Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall
suffer persecution. [13] But evil men and seducers shall wax worse
and worse, deceiving, and being deceived. [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. [16] All scripture
is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for
reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: [17] That
the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good
works.
1 Thes. 2:13 (KJV)
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 Peter 1:21 (KJV)
For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy
men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
There is one true God
Isaiah 43:10 (KJV)
Ye are my witnesses, saith the
Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and
believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God
formed, neither shall there be after me.
The Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ
His Virgin Birth
Luke 1:31-35 (KJV)
And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son,
and shalt call his name Jesus. [32] He shall be great, and shall be
called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him
the throne of his father David: [33] And he shall reign over the
house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.
[34] Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know
not a man? [35] And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy
Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall
overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born
of thee shall be called the Son of God.
His Sinless Life
1 Peter 2:21-22 (KJV)
For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for
us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: [22] Who
did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:
His Miracles
Acts 2:22 (KJV)
Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man
approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which
God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know:
His Work on the Cross
2 Cor. 5:21 (KJV)
For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we
might be made the righteousness of God in him.
His Bodily Resurrection from the Dead
Matthew 28:6 (KJV)
He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place
where the Lord lay.
Luke 24:39 (KJV)
Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and
see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.
His Exaltation to the Right Hand of God
The Fall of Man
Hebrews 1:3 (KJV)
Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his
person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he
had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the
Majesty on high;
The Salvation of Man
Romans 5:13-19 (KJV)
(For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when
there is no law. [14] Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses,
even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's
transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come. [15] But
not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the
offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the
gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto
many. [16] And not as it was by one that sinned, so is the gift: for
the judgment was by one to condemnation, but the free gift is of
many offences unto justification. [17] For if by one man's offence
death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of
grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one,
Jesus Christ.) [18] Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came
upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one
the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. [19] For
as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the
obedience of one shall many be made righteous.
Romans 10:13 (KJV)
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Titus 2:11-15 (KJV)
For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all
men, [12] Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts,
we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present
world; [13] Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious
appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; [14] Who
gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and
purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works. [15]
These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let
no man despise thee.
John 3:3 (KJV)
Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee,
Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body,
which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me. [25] After the same
manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new
testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of
me. [26] For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew

For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive
and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are

with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in
Christ shall rise first: [17] Then we which are alive and remain shall be
caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and
so shall we ever be with the Lord. [18] Wherefore comfort one another with
these words.

from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of
good works. [15] These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all
authority. Let no man despise thee.

Rev.
20:11-15 (KJV)
And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the
earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. [12]
And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were
opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead
were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according
to their works. [13] And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and
death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were
judged every man according to their works. [14] And death and hell were cast
into the lake of fire. This is the second death. [15] And whosoever was not
found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

of man.
