John 5:39 (NIV) You diligently study the Scriptures because you think that by them you possess eternal life. These are the Scriptures that testify about me.
Romans 1:16 (NIV) I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile.
Deuteronomy 11:18 (NIV) Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads.
The Bible is God's inspired Word--not a mere collection of various writers' opinions, ideas, philosophies, or "inspired" thoughts. John MacArthur
