Acts 20:32 KJV
And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.
What a blessed thing we have in God's Word.
Paul warns the preachers of Ephesus that from their very midst would come wolves who, for their own sakes would, to the detriment of God's flock (a local church) draw away disciples after them. Such actions are devastating not both the church and to the shepherd of that church
Because people the shepherd cares for have been lost but also
Because those who have taken them were once trusted associates in the work
Besides that pain these particular servants of the Most High have the added pain of realizing they will never see Paul again.
And yet here is the conclusion of this thing; Paul commends them both to God Himself, and to God's Word which, Paul affirms, "...is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified."
The Bible would build them and strengthen them and aide them in the face of the pain of loss and
The Bible would, as they preached it and practiced it in daily living, give them an inheritance with all the sanctified.
This Bible is more than mere words and information about spiritual matters. This Bible is food and sustenance. It is that which God has provided to keep the child of God until we one day stand before Him.
