2 Timothy 3:16 (CSB) All Scripture is inspired by God and is profitable for teaching, for rebuking, for correcting, for training in righteousness,
The 66 books we have are God breathed. We call it the bible. God inspired the writers to write what we have. The bible has the power to teach us, rebuke us, correct us, and train us in the right direction. We just have to be willing to let it. We read in vs 15 that it gives us wisdom for salvation. Joshua 1:8 says by the Book of the Law we find success and we prosper. In Hebrews we find the word of God is living and active. In Psalm 119 we find that it is a lamp to our path. In John 14 we find that the word of God is truth. In Nehemiah 9:13 we are told God gave impartial ordinances, reliable instructions, and good statutes and commands. No where have I found that the word of God is harmful to those who obey what it says. It does however tell us what the consequences are for disobedience (Deuteronomy 11:26-28, Deuteronomy 30, Revelation 22:12-19). James tells us to obey the word of God and not just listen to it. Let us do our part and spend time in God's word so that we may be faithful to do what is says.
