God's word cuts to the center of our joints and our bones. It judges the thoughts and feelings in our hearts.
            2 Timothy 3:16 (ERV) All Scripture is given by God. And all Scripture is useful for teaching and for showing people what is wrong in their lives. It is useful for correcting faults and teaching the right way to live.
