The Fundamentals THESE TEACHINGS IN THE LIGHT OF SCRIPTURE But let us hear what God’s word has to say regarding this topic: 2 Pet. 1:21. For no prophecy ever came by the will of man; but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.” 2 Tim. 3:16, 17.—“All Scripture given by inspiration of God is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness; that the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.” Gal. 1:11, 12.—“I certify you, brethren, that the Gospel which was preached by me is not after man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.” Rom. 1:16.—“I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ; for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth.” Acts 20:30. But “of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.” 2 Pet. 2:1. “There were false prophets also among the people, * * * who privily shall bring in damnable here sies, even denying the Lord that bought them.” 1 Cor. 1 :20, 21.—“Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? Hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.” Col. 2 :4-8. “This I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words,” or “spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.” 1 Cor. 3:19.—“For the wisdom of this world is foolish ness with God.” 1 Cor. 2 :5. That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.”
