"And
that from childhood you have known the sacred writings which are able to give
you the wisdom that leads to salvation through faith
which is in Christ Jesus. All
Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for
teaching, for reproof, for correction, for
training in righteousness; that the man of God may be
adequate, equipped for every
good work” (2 Timothy 3:15-17).
"Like
newborn babes, long for the pure milk of the word, that by it you may grow in
respect to salvation” (I Peter 2:2).
"We
have not ceased to pray for you and to ask that you may be filled with the
knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and
understanding, so that you may walk
in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please Him in all
respects, bearing fruit in every
good work and increasing in the knowledge of God”
(Colossians 1:9-10).
"Seeing
that His divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and
godliness, through the true knowledge of Him who
called us by His own glory and
excellence. For by these He has granted to us
His precious and magnificent promises,
in order that by them you might become partakers of
the divine nature, having
escaped the corruption that is in the world by lust”
(2 Peter 1:3-4).
"Concerning
Him we have much to say, and it is hard to explain since you have
become dull of hearing. For though by this time
you ought to be teachers, you have
need again for someone to teach you the elementary
principles of the oracles of God,
and you have come to need milk and not solid
food. For everyone who partakes only
of milk is not accustomed to the word of
righteousness, for he is a babe. But solid
food is for the mature, who because of practice have
their senses trained to
discern good and evil. Therefore leaving the
elementary teaching about the Christ, let
us press on to maturity” (Hebrews 5:11-6:1).
"But
grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus
Christ. To Him
be the glory, both now and to the day of
eternity. Amen” (2 Peter 3:18).
"It is
written, 'Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that proceeds
out
of the mouth of God” (Matthew 4:4).
"I
have not departed from the command of His lips; I have treasured the words of
His
mouth more than my necessary food” (Job 23:12).
"The
one who says, 'I have come to know Him,' and does not keep His
commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him;
but whoever keeps His word, in
him the love of God has truly been perfected. By
this we know that we are in Him” (I
John 2:4-5).
