The Prophetic Word Made Sure | Sermon 10/17/2021

The Apostle Peter is soon to face death and reminds the churches in Asia Minor that he has made up none of what he’s delivered to them.

Peter was an eyewitness to Jesus’ life and earthly ministry; he saw the unveiled glory of Christ and heard the endorsement of the Father on the mount of transfiguration; but even more sure than these we have the Scriptures which are from the mouth of God not from men that promise Christ, the bright morning star, has come to save us and illumine our darkened hearts.

These prophecies and Words from God came through the mode of men being carried by the Holy Spirit. And beyond the origin of Scripture or the mode of delivery we understand the formation of the canon to be a supernatural function, never determined by men but recognized as inspired through the same Holy Spirit.
