Is all Scripture given by inspiration of God?

Yes. The Bible states that all Scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, and for correction. The writers of Scripture did not write from memory, hearsay, or gathered notes; they wrote as the Holy Spirit moved and inspired them.

Les teaches that all Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and he points to 2 Timothy 3, where Scripture is said to be profitable for doctrine, for reproof, and for correction. He explains that the writers of Scripture wrote as the Holy Spirit inspired and moved them, not from what they remembered, not from hearsay, and not from notes they had gathered. Their personalities shine through because they were part of that point in time, yet what they wrote was Spirit-moved. Les compares correction to rockets needing constant trajectory correction; Scripture likewise corrects someone who gets off course.

2 Timothy 3:16

All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

What does 2 Timothy 3:16 say Scripture is profitable for?

Second Timothy 3:16 states that Scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, and for correction. Correction addresses someone who gets off course, much like a rocket's trajectory must be constantly corrected so it does not miss the moon.
