COMPENDIUM SERIES.
 |
Jesus the Teacher. |
We continue the faith journey and
explore what the Compendium teaches us about Sacred Scripture and why it is so
important for our lives.
18. Why does Sacred Scripture teach the truth? (CCC104-108,135-136)
Compendiums states:
Because God Himself is the author of
Sacred Scripture. For this reason, it is said to be inspired and to teach
without error those truths which are necessary for our salvation. The
Holy Spirit inspired the human authors who wrote what He wanted to teach us,
The Christian faith, however is not a “religion on of the Book, but of the Word
of God”, not a written and man-made word, but incarnate and living. (Saint
Bernard of Clairvaux).
What does this mean for me?
1. Because God is the author of the
Sacred Scriptures, I need to take care to learn the truths which He wants to
teach me for my salvation.
2. I am able to thank the Holy Spirit
for inspiring the Evangelists and for teaching me in Sacred Scripture?
Questions to consider:
- What place and how important is Sacred
Scripture in my prayer life?
- What are the truths that are necessary for my
salvation?
- What truths do I learn from the Holy Spirit
through Scripture each day?
- Why Sacred Scripture is relevant for all times
and seasons?
- How does the Holy Spirit inspire me to teach
the truth to others?
