This teaching sets forth reasons to believe that the Bible is God’s Word. It explains that God spoke through the prophets and apostles and that the Scriptures are inspired and profitable for teaching, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness. The study highlights the unity of the biblical narrative, fulfilled prophecy, and historical reliability as evidence that the Bible is not merely a human book. Believers are encouraged to trust the Bible as the truthful revelation of the Creator.
This study answers claims that God’s Word has been abolished. The prophets and apostles affirm that God’s Word stands forever: ‘The grass withers and the flower fades, but the word of our God will stand forever’ (Isaiah 40:8). Yeshua called the books of Moses the very Word of God, and Peter says ‘the word of the Lord remains forever’ (1 Peter 1:24–25). Traditions that nullify God’s commandments are condemned.
In Part 1 of this introductory teaching, we welcome viewers to explore the whole Word of God—from Genesis to Revelation—and explain why returning to the whole Word matters.
“Be doers of the Word,” an instruction from James to those who follow the Messiah. But what does he mean by the phrase? What is the “Word” we are to do?

In this week’s Parashah Point on the Torah Portion called Ha’azinu, we read Deuteronomy 32:45-47. We find out that not only is the Torah good instruction for us, but it’s the word of life and should be taken to heart. In addition we see how Paul’s writings actually agree with Moses and himself!
