The Bible is The Word of God

Few people want to talk about it and even fewer understand it. 

Yet, all of life boils down to authority: whose authority will we live under? A spirit of rebellion characterizes the unregenerate world. Even many believers miss the truth that they live life under divine authority. Because modern Christianity is defined by emotion, experiences, and extra-biblical teaching, it displays evidence that many have forgotten the principle of biblical authority. 

Our authority is not human ideas, but divine revelation. The foundation of faith is the Word of God. Without it, we have nothing to stand upon and nothing to share; but in the Word, we have all that we need! The Lord Jesus, interceding for His disciples, prayed, “Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth” (John 17:17). God’s Word is true and God’s truth is powerful.

Enjoying the Journey exists to evangelize the lost with the gospel of Jesus Christ, encourage pastors and local churches, and equip believers to walk with God and serve Him each day. However, there is no way to accomplish this mission apart from the transforming power of God’s Word. The Spirit of God works through the Word.

We unequivocally believe that the Bible is the very Word of God and that every word of the Word is divinely inspired. The Scriptures are the inerrant, infallible, completed, written revelation of God to man and, therefore, the all-sufficient, final authority for what we believe and how we are to live (2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21). Truth is not new and it is not old – it is eternal.

Evangelist R.A. Torrey gave his life to reach the world with the gospel and teach the Word of God. Because of this, he wrote, Ten Reasons Why I Believe the Bible is the Word of God. This book articulates what we believe about the sufficiency of Scripture. As you read these pages, may God both deepen your conviction in the Word and your commitment to study it and share it with others.


Ten Reasons Why I Believe the Bible is the Word of God is a classic work by Dr. R.A. Torrey. Additionally, this adaptation is available free of charge. One can find our short biography of Torrey at the conclusion, as well as suggestions for further reading. We trust this resource will help you. Use it and pass it along to others.

Putting Off and Putting On

We are releasing four volumes of devotional studies through the Psalms. I am grateful for the overwhelming reception to Roadmap for Life, Volume 1, which examined the Genesis Psalms (Psalms 1-41). Volume 2, the Exodus Psalms, is now available, and we trust it will be an aid to your study of Psalms 42- 72. Because of the devotional nature of these books, I am dedicating each to someone the Lord has used in my life to teach me more about private worship and personal devotion. This new volume is: Dedicated to Eustace Riggs

A Special Dedication

Zacharias and Elisabeth. Share it online, save it for later, or use it as a tool to teach these truths to others. © Enjoying the Journey 2026. Zacharias, as a priest, knew the Old Testament Scriptures well. He would have known Isaiah 40 and Malachi 4, which prophesied of his son’s ministry. He used the Word of God to instill eternal purpose in his boy. Early in the chapter, Zacharias questioned the angel with unbelief. But by the time John was born, Zacharias stood up and spoke in bold faith and praised God (Luke 1:68). Zacharias and Elisabeth likely died before John’s public ministry commenced, yet their influence lived on. John lived in the desert without them, but their instruction rang in his ears.
