Title: The Bible is Profitable
Speaker: Pastor Darryl J. Stalter
Scripture: 2 Timothy 3:1-17

A pew research poll published April 14, 2017 says that three-quarters of Christians say they believe the Bible is the word of God. Only 42% of Christians said that reading the Bible is an essential part of what being a Christian means to them personally. The question is if the Bible is the Word of God, why do more and more people, Christians included not read it or follow it? The fact is that deep down we either do not believe it to be true or we do not believe it to be useful. Yet, this is what the Bible actually claims to be. 2 Timothy 3:16 states that “All Scripture is God breathed and is profitable.” In other words it is both true and useful.
