INTRODUCTION

Today is the First Sunday in Epiphany. It signifies the manifestation of Christ to the Gentiles as represented by the Magi in Matthew 2:1-12. Our study texts reveal that the scriptures are given by inspiration of God (2Tim. 3:16-17), and it is the source of our knowledge of Him. The pages of the Bibles are the authoritative revelation in written form of God’s nature and purposes. Clearly, through the scriptures, we have the knowledge of God.
