What is the Bible and what are we supposed to do with it? What does knowing God mean, and how does scripture help? How will we know when we are seeing an accurate representation of God? These are the questions the Lectionary guides us through this week.
2 Timothy 3:14–4:5 Scripture is inspired by God—for making us wise for the salvation that appears in Christ Jesus. What it looks like to reframe our understanding of inspiration around the Christological purpose articulated in 2 Tim 3:13.
Jeremiah 31:27-34 New exodus promises a new covenant. Jeremiah contends for a better covenant and a better understanding of God to go along with it.
Psalm 119:97-104 No equivocation about the Law here—in Ps 119 it is unequivocally awesome! But what does that mean for us who see Christ rather than the Law as the perfect embodiment of the will of God, and as the one whose knowledge transforms us?
