Inspiration of the Scriptures(2 Tim. 3:16-17; 2 Pet. 1:19-21)

Scriptures = Law = Word of God (Jn. 10:34-35)

Scriptures = Law of Moses, Psalms, and Prophets (Lk. 24:44-47)

Inspired = God-breathed: the Word is breathed by God Himself through the individual that spoke for Him.

“By the word of the Lord the heavens were made,

And all the host of them by the breath of His mouth.”
