The Bible asserts its own trustworthiness, with 2 Timothy 3:16 stating that all Scripture is inspired by God. This divine origin is reinforced by 2 Peter 1:20-21, which explains that prophecy came not by human will, but by the Holy Spirit. The Gospels, such as Luke, demonstrate the importance of faithfulness and accuracy, as seen in Jesus' teaching on stewardship in Luke 16:10. The Bible's reliability is further underscored by Hebrews 4:12, which describes the Word of God as living and active, and 1 Corinthians 4:2-4, which emphasizes the need for faithfulness in handling God's Word.

Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture comes from one’s own interpretation. For no such prophecy was ever brought forth by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.
For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it pierces even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow. It judges the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

Whatever you do, work at it with your whole being, for the Lord and not for men,

Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, or set foot on the path of sinners, or sit in the seat of mockers. But his delight is in the Law of the LORD, and on His law he meditates day and night. He is like a tree planted by streams of water, yielding its fruit in season, whose leaf does not wither, and who prospers in all he does. Not so the wicked! For they are like chaff driven off by the wind. Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous. For the LORD guards the path of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.

Like a broken tooth or a foot out of joint is confidence in a faithless man in time of trouble.
Men of Israel, listen to this message: Jesus of Nazareth was a man certified by God to you by miracles, wonders, and signs, which God did among you through Him, as you yourselves know.
The one who saw it has testified to this, and his testimony is true. He knows that he is telling the truth, so that you also may believe.
But the Lord is faithful, and He will strengthen you and guard you from the evil one.
so My word that proceeds from My mouth will not return to Me empty, but it will accomplish what I please, and it will prosper where I send it.
