2 Tim 3:14-16
Using Your Forehead as a Hammer

2 Tim 3:16 NLT

 16 All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right.

All scripture is inspired by God.  He used man to write it but totally and completely inspired by God.  It is useful to teach us what is true and to show how we have made a mess of our lives.  It points to what is wrong and what is the right way.  

It does not stop at our salvation.  Scripture is also there to show how we fall short of the glory of God and what following Jesus looks like.  This means change for us.  

If we do not see that scripture is their to change us then we are using it for something that it wasn’t designed for.  It is like using our forehead as a hammer.  Can you?  yes.  Should you - no.  Was it designed for that - no.  Scripture is a means for Jesus to change me to be more like him.
