Formed by Grace | Fall 2025 | Lesson 2

Scripture is God's divine tool for teaching, correcting, and equipping believers, as emphasized in 2 Timothy 3:16-17. When approached as a precious gift rather than an obligation, the Bible transforms our spiritual lives. God communicates through both general revelation (creation) and special revelation (Scripture and Jesus). Effective engagement with Scripture involves creating consistent habits, memorization techniques, meditation, and structured study methods like REAP (Read, Examine, Apply, Pray). Proper interpretation requires understanding context, recognizing literary genres, and moving from knowledge to heart transformation.
