After the Fall: How Do I Know What to Do?


2 Timothy 3:16-17 (NKJV)
16 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.

After the Fall, the answer is the same, and even more so.  Paul instructs Timothy, pastor to pastor, to make sure that all Scripture is used to teach God's people what to believe and what to do in life - "equipped for every good work."

This establishes the sufficiency of Scripture to address every problem man has to face.  It is always where we start and whatever else we do must be rooted in, built upon, inferred from, and come out of a thorough understanding of God's Word to us.

God made the world, placed us in the world, and tells us as we live in this world what it is we are supposed to do.
