Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.Īnd be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.īut the word of the Lord endureth for ever. I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name. The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us: God is not a man, that he should lie neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? The books of the apocrypha can't even come close to the precision and integrity of God's word Numbers 23:19 The word of God, not the words or commandments of men, must have preeminence in our lives and be the final authority for truth. We want to stay with the authority of the laws of logic, sound science, and most importantly, the integrity and accuracy of God's word.

In other words, their doctrines and words were inspired by devil spirits and if you believe their lies and distortions of the word of God, it can damage you spiritually and psychologically. The reason Hymenaeus and Philetus' word will spiritually eat your mind away as gangrene is because they were sons of the devil whose sole purpose is to steal, kill and destroy. ġ5 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.ġ6 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.ġ7 And their word will eat as doth a canker : of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. Goal: to not be ignorant of Satan's plans against us These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.
