Scripture » The things written in scripture

Romans 15:1-4

We who are strong in the faith ought to help the weak to carry their burdens. We should not just please ourselves. Let every one of us please his neighbor for his good to build him up. For even Christ did not please himself. However it is written, The reproaches (insults) hurled at you have fallen on me. (Psalm 69:9) read more.
The things written in earlier times were written for our instruction, that we through endurance and the encouragement from the Scriptures might have hope.

2 Corinthians 1:12-13

We have the word of prophecy made sure (steadfast) (firm)!

Know this first that no prophecy of scripture is for private interpretation. For no prophecy ever came by the will of man! Men spoke from God, being moved by the Holy Spirit.

Scripture » The scriptures testifying of jesus Christ

John 5:23-47

All may honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father that sent him. Truly, Truly I say to you, he who hears my word, and believes him that sent me, has everlasting life. He will not receive judgment for he has passed out of death into life. Truly I tell you, the hour is coming when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God and those who hear (listen) (understand) will live. read more.
The Son has life in himself just as the Father has life in himself. For the Father gave him life. And he gave him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of man. Do not wonder about this for the hour is coming when everyone in the grave will hear his voice. They will return. Those who did good will have the resurrection of life. Those who did evil will receive the resurrection of judgment. I can do nothing by myself. So I hear and judge and my judgment is righteous. I do not seek my own will, but the will of him that sent me. If I alone testify about myself, my testimony is not enough truth. There is another who testifies about me. I know that his evidence about me is true. You sent people to John the Baptist and he has witnessed about the truth. The testimony I receive is not from man. However I say these things that you may be saved. He was the lamp that burns and shines. You were willing to rejoice for a season in his light. The testimony I have is greater than that of John. The works I do are the works the Father gave me to accomplish. They testify that the Father has sent me. The Father who sent me testifies about me. You have not heard his voice nor seen him at any time. You do not have his word dwelling in you. This is because you do not believe in the person he has sent. You search (investigate) (study) the Scriptures because you think that in them you have everlasting life. These Scriptures testify about me. And yet you will not come to me that you may have life. I do not accept glory from men. I know that the love of God is not in you. I came in my Father's name and you did not receive me. If another came in his own name you would receive him. How can you believe? You seek praise and glory from one another? Why do you not seek the glory that comes from the only God? Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father. Moses on whom you have set your hope is a plaintiff against you. It is a fact! If you believed Moses you would believe me. He wrote about me! If you do not believe his writings how will you believe my words?

Luke 24:44-46

He said: These are my words that I spoke to you, while I was yet with you. All things must be fulfilled. They are things that are written in the Law of Moses, and the Prophets, and the Psalms, concerning me. He opened their minds that they might understand the scriptures. He said: It is written that the Christ should suffer, and rise again from the dead the third day.
