Odle connects that foundation with the conviction that Scripture is presented as the standard for doctrine, discernment, and daily obedience.

    and this is when the devil is tempting him so when the devil's trying to deceive you this is something very important to know because this is what Jesus said he answered Jesus answered the devil and said it is written man should not live by bread alone but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God man shall not live by bread alone but by every word somebody say every word that's good every word Oh you mean not that we get to pick and choose which ones are important or more important than the others no every word remember Paul speaking to the Church of Ephesus he said I kept back nothing that was profitable to you I declared to you the whole Council of God and that is our job as Christians as especially Ministers of the Gospel pastors fivefold ministers our job is to declare the truth of God's word from Genesis to Revelation well let me just go and include you Christians especially some of you hard-headed pastors out there uh the truth of creation is scattered not just from gen not just in Genesis but throughout the entire Bible it is foundational to our faith that our God is the one true God the creator of Heaven and Earth the god of Abraham Isaac and Jacob the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ as revealed from Genesis to Malachi and Matthew to revelation okay that's the truth and and what's interesting is there are people out there say it's not important but I'm going to say this as I've said many times over the last few years if you can't trust Genesis chapter 1. then how can you trust the rest of the book and the famous book one of you know Paul's probably the Apostle Paul's most famous Epistles the epistle to the Romans The Book of Romans and what does he start talking about in Romans chapter 1 the creation the witness of creation that the witness of creation is so powerful that men are without excuse yet he said there would be men who would try to suppress the truth about creation that's what Romans 1 says share that many times the Gospel of John remember John called himself the Beloved disciple right the disciple that Jesus really loved right I love that about John because you know what John that just says that now he's being prideful he just really believed Jesus loved him that's pretty cool he believed it with all of his heart and his gospel starts out and we're gonna I'll share these passages in a minute but it's in the beginning was the word and the Word was with God and the Word was God and then
