A foundation verse for teaching youth
2 Timothy 3:14-16
“But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you have learned it and how from infancy you have known the holy Scriptures which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. All scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.”
Progression of spiritual education
Learned -> Convinced -> Continue in
Teaching is not just words, but also a person's life - More is caught than taught!
Knowing those from whom you have learned
Effect of Scripture in a person's life
• Teaching - tells us the path to take
• Rebuke - tells us when we have strayed from that path
• Correcting - tells us how to get back on the path
• Training - helps us to stay on the path
Twofold Purpose of God's Word!
1. Salvation by faith
2. equipped to serve God
