All Scripture is for youPaul's instruction to Timothy in second Timothy is meant for every believer as a personal guide for teaching, reproof, correction, and training in righteousness.2 Timothy 3:16–17

A solemn charge to fulfill your ministryJust as the President of the United States takes an oath of office with utmost solemnity, believers are entrusted with the eternal kingdom of heaven and must not waste their lives.

Why does the Bible sometimes feel boring?People often find the Bible boring because God did not design His word to satisfy carnal human flesh or compete with captivating worldly novels and movies.

Do not add to or take away from God's wordGod has made His word perfect, and attempting to pick and choose parts of it or alter it causes people to miss out on spiritual life.

The gospel is veiled to the perishingThe god of this world blinds the minds of unbelievers so they cannot see the light of the gospel and the glory of Christ.

The veil of the Old CovenantJust as a veil covered Moses' face because the glory was fading, a spiritual veil remains over the hearts of those reading the Old Covenant until they turn to Christ.2 Corinthians 3:13–15

Beholding Christ in the mirror of the WordWhen a person turns to the Lord, the veil is removed, and they can look into the word as a mirror to behold the glory of the Lord and be transformed.

Letters of Christ written on human heartsGod uses trials and circumstances in our lives to write His word on our hearts by the Spirit of the living God rather than on tablets of stone.2 Corinthians 3:3–6

Seeking a daily filling of the Holy SpiritBelievers must not rely on past experiences but must continually seek the daily filling of the Holy Spirit in order to truly understand God's word and see Christ.

Transformation through the renewal of the mindPaul urges believers to present their bodies as a living sacrifice and be transformed by the renewal of their minds in order to prove God's perfect will.
