PRIORITY OF THE WORD (AS SEEN IN EZRA)

"There is an application here for us. What men say and think is not important. The Scriptures are all-sufficient and contain all of the instruction that is needed for the guidance of those who would be faithful to God in any particular period of church history.

This is the reason I do not give talks on methods, or psychology, or sex. I preach and teach the Word of God. We need to look at the total Word of God, not just one or two familiar well-worn passages. I thank God for those familiar passages, but I think some of them have been worn out at the expense of other sections of the Word of God. When we look at the total Word of God, we won’t need a book on how to be happy though married and books like that which are going around. The Word of God has the answers. Why not go back to the source?"

--J. Vernon McGee
