Teens And The Word
Thursday, February 5, 2026Key Verse
“But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him” (1 John 2:5).
Text — 2 Timothy 3:14-17
Message
A teen is a young person transiting from childhood to adulthood. It is a learning age and requires carefulness about what to learn. True learning is from the Holy Scriptures. Matthew Henry said: “If Timothy would adhere to the truth as he had been taught, this would arm him against the snares and insinuations of seducers.” It is not enough to learn that which is good but we must continue in it, and preserve it to the end. The teens who would acquaint themselves with the things of God, and be assured of them, must know the Holy Scriptures.
If we would know the Holy Scriptures, we must read and search them daily as the noble Bereans did. Only Holy Scriptures can make us wise unto salvation. We should hold fast the faithful Word. The Holy Scriptures come from a Holy God, and were delivered to us by holy men. It contains holy precepts designed to make us holy to lead us on the way to heavenly happiness. If we obey the Holy Scripture, it will make us perfect and thoroughly prepared for good works.
