TEXT: Hebrews 4:12 (NKJV) 

For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

The 4 Pillars: 
  • The Bible is inerrant 
  • The Bible is infallible 
  • The Bible is indestructible 
  • The Bible is indisputable 

THE 4 PILLARS OF THE BIBLE 

The Bible is inerrant

2 Timothy 3:16-17 
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work. (NKJV) 
Inerrancy: the Bible is true and contains no errors 
A world without standards is not a world without standards, but it's a world with many standards defined by whomever you're speaking to. -Alex McFarland 
Psalm 119:128
Therefore all Your precepts concerning all things I consider to be right; I hate every false way. (NKJV)

The Bible is infallible

Infallible: The Bible is trustworthy and will never fail 
2 Peter 1:19 
And so we have the prophetic word confirmed, which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts; (NKJV) 
Job 26:7
He stretches out the north over empty space; He hangs the earth on nothing. (NKJV) 
Isaiah 40:22
It is He who sits above the circle of the earth… (NKJV) 
Jeremiah 33:22
As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, nor the sand of the sea measured, so will I multiply the descendants of David My servant and the Levites who minister to Me. (NKJV) 
The Bible is indestructible  
A hundred years after my death the Bible will simply be a museum piece. -Voltaire 
1 Peter 1:23
having been born again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the word of God which lives and abides forever, 24 because “All flesh is as grass, And all the glory of man as the flower of the grass. The grass withers, And its flower falls away, 25 But the word of the Lord endures forever.” (NKJV)

The Bible is indisputable 
Luke 8:15 
But the ones that fell on the good ground are those who, having heard the word with a noble and good heart, keep it and bear fruit with patience. (NKJV) 

APPLICATION 

Isaiah 55:11 
So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it. (NKJV) 
1 Corinthians 6:9-11 
Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, 10 nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And such  were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and  by the Spirit of our God. (NKJV)
