Knowing the Word is important; it matters. As 2 Timothy 3:16 says, “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.” And there are consequences for neglecting the Word. “For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables” ( 2 Timothy 4:3-4). Paul is referring to a time—and I certainly think we’re in it—when people will say “no” to God’s truth. They’ll turn away from hearing the truth of the Bible because they want something easier and more palatable. It’s all around us today. Some churches and denominations that were founded by godly, Bible-believing people have turned away from sound doctrine. A survey of 3000 Protestant ministries once reported that 56% rejected the virgin birth, 71% rejected the idea of life after death, 54% rejected the bodily resurrection of Christ, and 98% rejected that there would be a personal return of Jesus Christ to this earth. Why would this happen? Because sound doctrine rebukes ungodliness. Jesus said, “Men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed” (John 3:19). Anybody who lives contrary to sound doctrine will hate Bible teaching; they’ll resist it. And that, in turn, opens them up to believing lies. Paul wrote in Ephesians 4:14 “that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting.” The old King James says, “whereby they lie in wait to deceive.” What a picture! People waiting for you to turn away from the truth, so they can fill you with all sorts of ideas that are contrary to sound doctrine. When you reject the nourishment of truth from the Word of God and feed on error, though you might not see it right away, it slowly creeps in, especially in the area of essential historic doctrine, and it’ll make you spiritually sick!
