Lesson 8: The Right Use of Scripture

Shadows of the Things to Come


Prayer

Father,
We desire to serve Christ and to please him in every way. By your Spirit, strengthen us as we labor to interpret and to use Scripture so that we might present ourselves to you as workers who do not need to be ashamed but rightly handle the word of truth.
In the name of Jesus,
Amen.

The Bible demands that we follow its example in using Scripture rightly.
