The Profitable Word
God has given humanity many wonderful and good gifts (Jas. 1:17). And one of those good gifts is His word. Its importance is stressed throughout the Bible (Deut. 4:2; 1 Pet. 1:25; John 12:48). God has inspired and preserved His word for us and for those who will come after us. Here in our text, Paul stresses how God’s word is profitable for the disciple of Christ. Why does the apostle Paul believe that God’s word is profitable?
