We Can Trust the Testimony of the Apostles, and the Prophecy of Scripture 2 Peter 1:16-21
Think about it: When you trust someone, what are the ingredients that make that true? How has your experience in other situations contributed to this?
Read 2 Peter 1:16-18. Why do you think Peter states that “they” were not making up clever stories about the coming of Jesus?
Peter tells of his experience – Read Matthew 17:1-9.
How does Peter’s experience with Jesus at the Mount of Transfiguration prove that Jesus will come again?
Read 2 Peter 1:19-21. What did Peter’s experience give him? (v.19)
What does Peter tell the believers to do, and what does He say this will bring to them? Read Psalm 119:105.
How can we know that the writings of the prophets in the Scriptures can be trusted?
How does what Peter writes in verses 20-21 help you in having confidence in what is written in the Bible?
With this understanding, what do you do when you are confronted with Scripture passages that are difficult to understand?
Prayer:
Thank God for preserving the testimony of the apostles and for speaking to us clearly through the Bible.
Pray for someone you know who may struggle with confidence in the Word of God.
Pray that you may be an encouragement to other believers to trust God’s Word.
