January 13, 2022 Bible Verse | Source of Prophecy
BIBLE VERSE: For no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit. – 2 Peter 1:21 – ESV
Note that this verse begins with a word of explanation – “for.” The previous verse explained that Scriptures did not come from a human source but a divine source.
Scripture does not originate with man. Man does not originate the Bible. The human author received God’s ideas. Scripture comes by divine inspiration. The Bible is not man’s idea. The Bible originates with God. Revelation comes from God to man.
Religion is man’s ideas about God. That is why religion does not have the answer.
