Sound Doctrine is a doctrine that is founded in truth and is “in exact accordance with that which is, or has been; or shall be”. It is the mind of Jesus Christ. It cannot be overthrown or proved wrong no matter how diligently satan’s servants work to change it.
The word, “sound,” in “sound doctrine,” has a distinct meaning in the Bible: Founded in truth; firm; strong; valid; solid; cannot be overthrown or refuted; as a sound argument; sound reasoning; sound principles; a sound doctrine.
Sound doctrine (SD) is God’s Own Words that narrates a single story that sweeps through all of Scripture, Genesis to Revelation. Combines a number of things into a coherent whole. All Scripture fits together as a marvelous unity because it consists of God’s Own Words, revealing God’s Own Thoughts and Acts.
Scripture says in 2 Peter 1:20-21, “Knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation, for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.”
The Holy Spirit revealed to the prophets all messages of Scripture. The writers of the Bible wrote NOT according to their own will, but only as they were moved, or controlled, by the Spirit of God. The Bible is God’s own book!
2 Timothy 3:16-17 says, “All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.”
What does God-breathed mean? It is the Greek word, Theopneustos, which means God spoke directly and filled the writers with an influence, feeling, and quality be present and apparent throughout them. God breathed the knowledge into the writer. Every word and thought was inspired by God. Their message came directly from God. The writers did nothing but write as the Holy Spirit dicated. This is Sound Doctrine.
The Word of God is infallible and inerrant. The word of God is Pure; Proverbs 30:5-6, God’s Word is 100% Authoritative; Psalms 119:89, and God’s Word accomplishes what it promises; Isaiah 55:11, So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
The purpose of reading and/or teaching Bible Scriptures is to love God, and the only way to love God is to know God Personally. Sound doctrine tells us what God is like so that we may love him more and also is an important guard for interpreting Scripture. It helps us ensure that we confess and delight in all that Scripture teaches.
Sound doctrine is God’s roadmap for the Amazing and Dynamic Christian life and to build the strong Church.The unity of the church is grounded in the unity of the faith. What SD teaches is God’s Word for your purpose to live it out.
God’s truth devotes you more completely to God in your desires, thoughts, actions, words, and attitudes, which is what the Bible calls “holiness.”
God’s word is grounded in truth? It is genuineness: the quality of truly being what something is said to be; authenticity, at which is true or in accordance with fact or reality. The Greek word for truth is aletheia, which means “hiding nothing.”
The apostle John once told a church that he loved them “in the truth,” and that all those who know the truth love them too, “because of the truth that abides in us and will be with us forever” 2 John 1:2-3. Truth is the basis of the special bond of love that ties Christians’ hearts together. And truth is the pattern of our love: we are to love one another in deed and truth, since that is how Jesus loved us;1 John 3:16–18.
Worship is our personal adoring response to who God is. Worship is rendering to the Lord for glory due his name. Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness; Ps. 29:2. Worship is not an ecstatic, contentless, emotional experience. Worship is your personal heartfelt response in word, song, and deed to God’s inherent worthiness, in order to magnify his glory.
If you do not know the truth about God, how can you worship him? True worship, Jesus said, is in Spirit and in truth; John 4:24.
Sound Doctrine knowledge of God is what energizes, to make energetic, vigorous, and active, your worship. Praising God in song and prayer and living a life that brings him glory because he is holy, loving, just, powerful, sovereign, and good. Worship is your response to who God is and what he does. No sound doctrine, no worship.
Teaching is for living. Truth is for life. Sound docrine is for unity, love, witness, worship, happiness, and joy. That is what this book is all about. Christians needs to understand how sound biblical teaching informs every aspect of Christian living and experience. Bobby Jamieson makes the argument that is brief, biblical, interesting, and compelling. If you do not understand why sound doctrine is important or realize the difference it can make then Bobby has something to teach you.
