Doctrine matters because…We love God.Belief shapes behavior.It informs our worldview.We need to be equipped to explain what we believe and why we believe it.God has revealed Himself to us…Through His CreationThrough His SonThrough His WordGod’s word is to your soul what food is to your stomach.  We consume, trust, and obey God’s Word…1. Because it is Inspired 2. Because it is Inerrant 3. Because it is Instructive If God’s Word is inspired, inerrant, and instructive, why wouldn’t we be in it every day?
