Bible Study Course: Lesson 2 The Word of God: The Foundation of Knowledge
Summary Remarks
Jesus Christ said that God's Word is truth (John 17:17). This precious spiritual
knowledge is revealed in the words of Holy Scripture. Remember that we are told
to live by every word of God (Matthew 4:4). Recall also that it was King David
who said, "Your law is truth" (Psalm 119:142) and "the law of
the LORD is perfect, converting the soul" (Psalm 19:7).
In summary, the Bible is the foundation or basis of knowledge. It shows the
root cause of every problem that has plagued the human family since creation.
God's Word reveals the true values by which we must live if we are to solve
our massive relationship problems and the other seemingly insoluble dilemmas
that threaten to overwhelm us.
Lesson 3 will explore the fascinating topic of Why Man? What is man and how
is he related to God? Why was he made in God's image? Do we have an immortal
soul? Is there a spirit in man? Will men and women either go to heaven or burn
in hell? What is the reward of the saved? All these questions and many more
will be answered in the next lesson.
