“Search The Scripture”

Key Verse

“These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so” (Acts 17: 11).

Text —Acts 17:9-14

Message

According to John Ripper, “There is a spiritual diet without which no Christian can be strong, healthy and fruitful, that is, the Word of God. Without it, you starve every grace that God means for you to thrive in His World.” The Berean believers, in our text, upheld this assertion by searching the Scriptures daily, to validate what they heard from the apostles. Mere hearing and reading God’s Word is not sufficient for our walk with God. Every believer, including youths, must search the Scriptures to know the mind of God, and enhance personal conviction necessary for Christian growth and walk with Him. Do you search the Scriptures like the Berean believers?

Dear friend, if there is any time you need to search the Scriptures, it is now. You cannot survive the challenges of our time without God’s Word. It has power to transform your life, strengthen your faith, and give you victory over youthful lusts. To remain steadfast in your faith, have a good copy of the Bible, not just the electronic version; read and pray it in often, obey it, and preach Christ as led by the Spirit.
