Scripture is that portion of literature deemed authoritative for establishing instructions within any of several specific religious traditions.
In the pages that follow, four truths will be emphasized. The first is that the Old Testament saints had not been continually indwelled by the Holy Spirit in the same way as the New Testament saints. That means that they had not had the same advantages in trying to live for the Lord. The second is that the scriptures do not and had not been intended to share exhaustive details about everything and everyone within their historical presentations. That means that they might share a negative event about a godly king without being concerned with trying to offset it with a positive event. The scriptures had been written to show God's involvement with humanity and to show people how to find Him. They had not been written to show that the godly kings had been godly. The third truth that will be often shared is that all people are sinners. Therefore, one should not expect too much of the godly kings of Israel even if they had been godly. The fourth truth is that they had not lost their salvation even though some of them had done some pretty bad things.Scripture is that portion of literature deemed authoritative for establishing instructions within any of several specific religious traditions.
