The Inspiration Of The Holy Bible

A Comprehensive Doctrinal Study

I. DEFINITION AND ORIGIN OF “INSPIRATION”

A. Key Verse – 2 Timothy 3:16 (KJV)

“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:”

  • Greek: Πᾶσα γραφὴ θεόπνευστος (pasa graphē theopneustos)

o   θεόπνευστος (theopneustos) – God-breathed; from Theos (God) + pneō (to breathe).

o   The term does not mean "inspired" as in artistic creativity, but literally “breathed out by God.”

B. Implication:

Scripture does not contain the Word of God—it is the Word of God! It is not a product of man’s elevated religious feeling, but a direct communication from God Himself, through human instruments.

II. THE PROCESS OF INSPIRATION

A. 2 Peter 1:20–21

“Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.”

  • Greek:
    • φερόμενοι ὑπὸ πνεύματος ἁγίου (pheromenoi hypo pneumatos hagiou)
      • pheromenoi = carried along, driven (used also in Acts 27:15 of a ship driven by wind)
      • Men did not initiate prophecy; they were moved and directed.

B. Jeremiah 1:9

“Then the LORD put forth his hand, and touched my mouth. And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth.”

  • Hebrew:
    • nātattî (נָתַתִּי) – “I have put” – emphatic action of the Lord giving His own words.

C. Conclusion:

Inspiration is verbal (words chosen) and complete (every part is inspired). Writers were not authors of divine ideas but vehicles of divine truth.

III. HISTORICAL EVIDENCE OF SCRIPTURAL INTEGRITY

A. The Dead Sea Scrolls (1947–1956 Discovery)

  • Scrolls date from 3rd century B.C. to 1st century A.D.
  • Include almost every Old Testament book (esp. Isaiah), showing incredible consistency with the Masoretic Text (10th century A.D.).
  • Refutes claim that Bible was altered in the "Middle Ages."

B. New Testament Manuscript Evidence

  • Over 5,800 Greek manuscripts, 10,000+ Latin, and 9,300 other early versions.
  • Fragments like P52 (c. 125 A.D.) prove early circulation of NT writings.
  • Variants are minor and do not affect doctrine (e.g., spelling, word order).

“The Bible is the best attested document of antiquity.” – Fact, not bias.

IV. CLAIMS REFUTED: “THE BIBLE WAS CORRUPTED”

A. Jesus’ Testimony – John 17:17

“Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.”

  • If the Word was corrupt, it could not be truth.

B. Psalm 12:6–7

“The words of the Lord are pure words... Thou shalt keep them, O Lord, thou shalt preserve them from this generation forever.”

  • Hebrew:
    • shamar (שָׁמַר) – preserve, guard carefully
    • God guarantees preservation, not just inspiration.

C. Matthew 5:18

“Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.”

  • Jot – smallest Hebrew letter (yod); Tittle – decorative stroke.
  • Jesus affirms minute detail will remain until all is accomplished.

V. CLAIMS REFUTED: “THE BIBLE IS MAN'S INVENTION”

A. Internal Evidence – Unity and Consistency

  • Written over 1,500 years, by 40+ authors, from 3 continents, in 3 languages.
  • Covers controversial topics (sin, eternity, government, gender roles, salvation)—yet harmonious.
  • No internal contradictions despite its diversity.

B. Fulfilled Prophecy

  • Isaiah 53 (suffering servant) fulfilled in Jesus—700 years later.
  • Daniel 2 & 7 outlines four successive kingdoms: Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, Rome—before they existed.

C. Human Honesty in Scripture

  • Heroes' failures are recorded (David’s sin, Peter’s denial, apostles’ unbelief).
  • If the Bible were man-made, such accounts would be omitted or softened.

Man glorifies himself; Scripture humbles him.

This is not the pattern of invented religion.

VI. THE BIBLE CLAIMS DIVINE ORIGIN

A. “Thus saith the Lord” – Occurs over 2,000 times in OT.

B. Hebrews 1:1–2

“God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past... hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son…”

  • God spoke in many ways—via prophets and now via Christ—recorded in Scripture.

C. 1 Corinthians 2:13

“Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth…”

  • Paul claims verbal inspiration guided by the Spirit.

VII. WHAT THE SCRIPTURE ACCOMPLISHES (PROOF OF DIVINITY)

A. Hebrews 4:12

“For the word of God is quick, and powerful... and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.”

B. Psalm 19:7–9

“The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul... making wise the simple... rejoicing the heart... enlightening the eyes.”

  • Only the Word of God transforms character, convicts conscience, and gives eternal hope.

VIII. EXAMPLES OF JESUS AND APOSTLES USING SCRIPTURE AS FINAL AUTHORITY

A. Jesus – Matthew 4:4,7,10

“It is written…” – threefold appeal in temptation.

B. Paul – Acts 17:2

“...he reasoned with them out of the scriptures…”

  • Apostolic preaching = Scripture-based, not mystical experience or human logic.

IX. CONCLUSION: THE HOLY BIBLE IS GOD’S PERFECT, INSPIRED WORD

Summary:

  • Inspired = God-breathed (2 Tim. 3:16)
  • Inerrant = Free from error (Ps. 119:160)
  • Preserved = Guarded forever (Ps. 12:6–7)
  • Authoritative = Final rule (Isa. 8:20; Rev. 22:18–19)

Call to Action:

“To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.” – Isaiah 8:20

Rejecting the Bible is not merely rejecting a book—it is rejecting the breath of God Himself.

Ang Inspirasyon Ng Banal Na Biblia

Isang Komprehensibong Doktrinal na Pag-aaral

I. KAHULUGAN AT PINAGMULAN NG “INSPIRASYON”

A. Susing Talata – 2 Timoteo 3:16

“Ang lahat ng mga kasulatan na kinasihan ng Dios ay mapapakinabangan din naman sa pagtuturo, sa pagsansala, sa pagsaway, sa ikatututo na nasa katuwiran:”

  • Griyego: Πᾶσα γραφὴ θεόπνευστος (pasa graphē theopneustos)
    • theopneustos – hiningahan ng Diyos; mula sa Theos (Diyos) + pneō (huminga)
    • Hindi ito nangangahulugang “kinasihan” gaya ng malikhaing sining, kundi literal na “hiningahan ng Diyos.”

B. Implikasyon:

Ang Kasulatan ay hindi lamang naglalaman ng Salita ng Diyos — ito ang Salita ng Diyos! Hindi ito produkto ng damdaming panrelihiyon ng tao, kundi tuwirang pahayag mula sa Diyos na ibinigay sa pamamagitan ng mga taong Kanyang ginamit.

II. ANG PROSESO NG INSPIRASYON

A. 2 Pedro 1:20–21

“Na maalaman muna ito, na alin mang hula ng kasulatan ay hindi nagbuhat sa sariling pagpapaliwanag. Sapagka't hindi sa kalooban ng tao dumating ang hula kailanman: kundi ang mga tao ay nagsalita buhat sa Dios, na nangaudyokan ng Espiritu Santo”

  • Griyego: φερόμενοι ὑπὸ πνεύματος ἁγίου (pheromenoi hypo pneumatos hagiou)
    • pheromenoi (nangaudyokan) – dinala, inihip, ginabayan (gaya ng barkong tinatangay ng hangin sa Gawa 27:15)
    • Ang mga propeta ay hindi kusang nagsalita; sila’y ginabayan at pinakilos.

B. Jeremias 1:9

“Nang magkagayo'y iniunat ng Panginoon ang kaniyang kamay, at hinipo ang aking bibig; at sinabi sa akin ng Panginoon, Narito, inilagay ko ang aking mga salita sa iyong bibig:”

  • Hebreo: nâthan (נָתַן) – “inilagay ko” – mariing aksyon ng Diyos sa pagbibigay ng Kanyang sariling mga salita.

C. Konklusyon:

Ang inspirasyon ay verbal (pati mga salitang ginamit ay pinili) at kumpleto (buong bahagi ng Kasulatan ay kinasihan). Ang mga manunulat ay hindi tagapaglikha ng ideyang mula sa Diyos, kundi direktang tagapagdala ng Kanyang katotohanan.

III. PATUNAY AYON SA KASAYSAYANG NG KABUUAN AT INTEGRIDAD NG KASULATAN

A. Dead Sea Scrolls (Natuklasan: 1947–1956)

  • Mga balumbon (scrolls) na mula pa sa ika-3 siglo B.C. hanggang ika-1 siglo A.D.
  • Kabilang halos lahat ng aklat ng Lumang Tipan (lalo na ang Isaias), na tugma sa Masoretic Text (ika-10 siglo A.D.)
  • Pinabulaanan ang bintang na ang Bibliya ay binago noong “Middle Ages”

B. Katibayang Manuskrito ng Bagong Tipan

  • Higit sa 5,800 Griyegong manuskrito, 10,000+ Latin, at 9,300 iba pang sinaunang bersyon
  • Mga fragmento gaya ng P52 (c. 125 A.D.) na patunay ng maagang pagkalat ng mga sulat ng Bagong Tipan
  • Ang mga pagkakaiba ay maliliit at walang doktrinang naapektuhan (halimbawa: baybay, ayos ng salita)

“Ang Bibliya ay ang may pinakamatibay na dokumentaryong ebidensya sa kasaysayan ng sinaunang panahon.”

IV. MGA BINTANG NA PINABUBULAANAN: DIUMANO “ANG BIBLIYA AY BINAGO O KINORAP”

A. Patotoo ni Jesus – Juan 17:17

“Pakabanalin mo sila sa katotohanan: ang salita mo ay katotohanan.”

  • Kung ang Salita ay tiwali, hindi ito maaaring maging katotohanan.

B. Awit 12:6–7

“Ang mga salita ng Panginoon ay mga dalisay na salita; … Iyong iingatan sila, Oh Panginoon, iyong pakaingatan sila mula sa lahing ito magpakailan man.”

  • Hebreo: shamar (שָׁמַר) – ingatan, bantayan nang buong pag-iingat
  • Ipinapangako ng Diyos ang pangangalaga, hindi lamang inspirasyon.

C. Mateo 5:18

“Sapagka't katotohanang sinasabi ko sa inyo, Hanggang sa mangawala ang langit at ang lupa, ang isang tuldok o isang kudlit, sa anomang paraan ay hindi mawawala sa kautusan, hanggang sa maganap ang lahat ng mga bagay.”

  • ang isang tuldok o isang kudlit – pinakamaliit na titik sa Hebreo (yod); Tittle – maliit na palamuti sa titik
  • Pinagtitibay ni Jesus na kahit ang pinakamaliit na detalye ay mananatili.

V. MGA BINTANG NA PINABUBULAANAN: DIUMANO “GINAWA LANG NG TAO ANG BIBLIYA”

A. Internal na Patunay – Pagkakaisa (Unity) at Pagkakapareho (Consistency)

  • Isinulat sa loob ng 1,500 taon, ng higit sa 40 manunulat, mula sa 3 kontinente, sa 3 wika
  • Tinatalakay ang mga sensitibong paksa (kasalanan, kawalang-hanggan, gobyerno, papel ng kasarian, kaligtasan) — ngunit magkakaugnay
  • Walang salungat kahit sa kabila ng lawak at tagal ng pagkakasulat

B. Natupad na Hula

  • Isaias 53 – ang “nagdurusang lingkod” – natupad kay Jesus, 700 taon matapos isulat
  • Daniel 2 & 7 – naglarawan ng apat na magkakasunod na kaharian: Babilonia, Medo-Persia, Gresya, Roma — bago pa ito mangyari

C. Katapatan ng mga Tauhan

  • Ipinakita ang pagkakamali ng mga bayani (kasalanan ni David, pagtatwa ni Pedro, pagdududa ng mga apostol)
  • Kung gawa-gawa lamang ito ng tao, tiyak na ikukubli o itatago ang mga ito

Sana ay tao ang gustong dakilain ang sarili o gawing sentro, ngunit ang Kasulatan ay nagpapakumbaba sa kanya. Samakatuwid, hindi ito ang paraan ng gawaing-pangrelihiyong na kathang-isip lamang.

VI. SINASABI NG BIBLIA NA ITO AY GALING SA DIYOS

A. “Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoon” – Mahigit 2,000 beses sa Lumang Tipan

B. Mga Hebreo 1:1–2

“Ang Dios, na nagsalita nang unang panahon sa ating mga magulang sa iba't ibang panahon at sa iba't ibang paraan sa pamamagitan ng mga propeta, Ay nagsalita sa atin sa mga huling araw na ito sa pamamagitan, ng kaniyang Anak,...”

  • Ang Diyos ay nagsalita sa iba't ibang paraan — sa pamamagitan ng mga propeta at ngayon sa pamamagitan ni Cristo — at ito ay naitala sa Kasulatan

C. 1 Corinto 2:13

“Na ang mga bagay na ito ay atin namang sinasalita, hindi sa mga salitang itinuturo ng karunungan ng tao, kundi sa itinuturo ng Espiritu;...”

  • Inaangkin ni Pablo na ang kanilang mga salita ay kinasihan ng Espiritu

VII. ANG PATOTOONG NAKAMIT NG KASULATAN (PATUNAY NG PAGKADIYOS)

A. Mga Hebreo 4:12

“Sapagka't ang salita ng Dios ay buhay, at mabisa, at matalas... at madaling kumilala ng mga pagiisip at mga haka ng puso.”

B. Awit 19:7–9

“Ang kautusan ng Panginoon ay sakdal, na nagsasauli ng kaluluwa: ang patotoo ng Panginoon ay tunay, na nagpapapantas sa hangal. Ang mga tuntunin ng Panginoon ay matuwid, na nagpapagalak sa puso: ang utos ng Panginoon ay dalisay, na nagpapaliwanag ng mga mata. Ang takot sa Panginoon ay malinis, na nananatili magpakailan man: ang mga kahatulan ng Panginoon ay katotohanan, at lubos na matuwid.”

  • Tanging ang Salita ng Diyos ang tunay na nagpapabago ng ugali, nanghihikayat sa budhi, at nagbibigay ng walang hanggang pag-asa

VIII. HALIMBAWA NI JESUS AT MGA APOSTOL SA PAGGAMIT NG KASULATAN BILANG PINAKA-MAKAPANGYARIHANG AWTORIDAD

A. Si Jesus – Mateo 4:4,7,10

“Nasusulat...” – tatlong beses na binanggit sa oras ng tukso

B. Si Pablo – Gawa 17:2

“...at siya'y nakipagtalo sa kanila mula sa mga kasulatan...”

  • Ang pangangaral ng mga apostol ay nakabatay sa Kasulatan, hindi sa karanasan o lohika ng tao

IX. KONKLUSYON: ANG BANAL NA KASULATAN AY ANG GANAP NA SALITA NG DIYOS

Buod:

  • Kinasihan = Hiningahan ng Diyos (2 Tim. 3:16)
  • Walang Kamalian = Walang pagkakamali (Awit 119:160)
  • Iningatan = Pinangalagaan magpakailanman (Awit 12:6–7)
  • Pinaka-Awtoridad = Huling pamantayan (Isaias 8:20; Pahayag 22:18–19)

Panawagan:

“Sa kautusan at sa patotoo! kung hindi sila magsalita ng ayon sa salitang ito, tunay na walang umaga sa kanila.” – Isaias 8:20

Ang pagtanggi sa Bibliya ay hindi lang pagtanggi sa isang aklat — kundi pagtanggi sa mismong hininga ng Diyos.

The Origin and Error of “Once Saved, Always Saved” (OSAS): A Biblical Exposé

English 🇵🇭 Tagalog The Origin and Error of “Once Saved, Always Saved” (OSAS) A Biblical Exposé An Authoritative Study Using the King James Bible Introduction: A Question of Eternal Security The doctrine of Once Saved, Always Saved (OSAS) asserts that once a person is saved, they can never lose their salvation, regardless of future behavior, apostasy, or rebellion. It is often linked with the phrase “eternal security” in Protestant theology. This study examines the origin, evaluates the biblical claims, and provides a full refutation using only the Scripture as the final and only authority. I. Historical Roots of OSAS (A Brief Context) Though many today assume OSAS to be an apostolic doctrine, its systematized form arose from John Calvin's doctrine of Perseverance of the Saints (TULIP), later popularized by Baptist theologians like Charles Stanley and modern evangelical churches. However, early church fathers such as Tertullian, Orige...

The Promise and Importance of Christ’s Church

English 🇵🇭 Tagalog     Next ⟶ The Promise and Importance of Christ’s Church "And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." — Matthew 16:18 (KJV) Introduction The Church of Christ is not a product of human invention or denominational evolution. It is the fulfillment of a divine promise — a structure built not by human hands, but by the Lord Himself. In a time when religious confusion is widespread and thousands of conflicting churches exist, we must return to the simple, authoritative statement of Jesus: “I will build my church.” (Matt. 16:18) These words mark the beginning of a divine blueprint. This was not a vague intention, nor a mystical concept. Jesus was referring to a real, identifiable, and traceable body of people — the church — that He Himself would build, own, and preserve. “I Will Build My Church” — A Divine...

Restoration Movement: The Illusion of Rebuilding What God Preserved

English 🇵🇭 Tagalog There Is Nothing to Restore — Just Preach the Gospel A Doctrinal Exposition Affirming the Ongoing Existence and Perfection of God’s Church Introduction In recent centuries, many sincere believers have spoken of a "restoration movement"—the idea that the true church was lost to history and must now be recovered or re-established. But is this concept biblical? Does Scripture ever indicate that the church built by Christ (Matthew 16:18) would vanish, become corrupted, and need a future restoration? The answer, as revealed in the inspired Word of God, is  no . What God  planned before the foundation of the world  (Ephesians 3:9–11), what Christ  purchased with His own blood  (Acts 20:28), and what was  established in power on Pentecost  (Acts 2),  continues to exist today . While men may depart from the truth, the truth remains. And what we are called to do is not to restore, but to  pre...

The Church Built By Jesus Christ In The New testament - Lesson 1

English 🇵🇭 Tagalog ⟵ Previous Next ⟶ Lesson 1: The Church Planned by God Before the Creation of the Universe Key Passage: Ephesians 3:9–11 “ And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord: ” Introduction The concept of the church is often misunderstood—even among believers. To many, it appears to be an afterthought, a temporary institution until Christ returns, or merely a human denomination among many. But the Scriptures teach otherwise. The church was not an accident. It was not a substitute for a failed plan. It was not an invention of man. It was part of God's eternal purpose , rooted i...

The Deathblow to OSAS

English 🇵🇭 Tagalog Romans 6:1-2 — The Deathblow to OSAS with One Simple Question "What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? - Romans 6:1-2 Can You Keep Sinning and Still Be Saved? Paul Says: Absolutely Not! Some claim, “Once Saved, Always Saved” (OSAS)—but what if one simple question from Paul demolishes that doctrine entirely? In  Romans 6:1-2 , the apostle confronts the dangerous logic that grace gives license to sin. His answer is sharp, unshakable, and Spirit-inspired. This short but powerful passage doesn’t just challenge OSAS—it delivers the deathblow. Ready to face the truth? Q: Who is speaking in Romans 6:1? A:  The apostle  Paul —a faithful Christian, divinely inspired. Q: Who does the word "we" refer to? A:  To  Paul and other Christians . Those already  saved ,  baptized , and  wal...

“And Such Were Some of You”: A Scriptural Mandate for Total Transformation

English 🇵🇭 Tagalog Doctrinal Refutation of LGBTQ+ in Light of 1 Corinthians 6:9–11 “Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.” (1Cor. 6:9-11) I.

The Divine Origin and Preservation of the Holy Scriptures

English 🇵🇭 Tagalog The Divine Origin and Preservation of the Holy Scriptures By the Hand of God Introduction This study answers a critical doctrinal question: Is the Bible merely a product of men, or is it truly the work of God’s hand? Through Scripture alone, we will demonstrate that: ·         The origin of every word in the Bible is from God. ·         The process of writing it down was by divine guidance. ·         The preservation of the Scriptures through the ages is a deliberate act of God’s providence.
