God's Word is Our Foundation

God’s Word — the foundation for our lives — is the standard we use to judge every thought.

Key Passages

Psalm 19:7-11 “The instruction of the Lord is perfect, renewing one’s life; the testimony of the Lord is trustworthy, making the inexperienced wise. The precepts of the Lord are right, making the heart glad; the command of the Lord is radiant, making the eyes light up. The fear of the Lord is pure, enduring forever; the ordinances of the Lord are reliable and altogether righteous. They are more desirable than gold— than an abundance of pure gold; and sweeter than honey dripping from a honeycomb. In addition, your servant is warned by them, and in keeping them there is an abundant reward.”

Proverbs 30:5 “Every word of God is pure; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him.”
