A Guy’s Words or God’s Word? | Brian Autry | 1 Thessalonians 2:13-20 | October 12, 2025

by archytele



Is the Bible just a collection of ancient stories and wise sayings, or is it something more? In a world of endless opinions and competing truths, how can we know if the Bible is truly God’s Word? In the latest message from our series, “A Going Church for a Coming Lord,” Pastor Brian Autry dives into 1 Thessalonians chapter 2 to address this very question. Paul commended the Thessalonian church because they received his message “not as the word of men, but as what it really is, the word of God.” Pastor Brian explores the incredible historical, scientific, and prophetic evidence that supports the Bible’s claim to be divinely inspired. More than just an ancient book, this message reveals the Bible as living, active, and powerful—a Word that is meant to be at work in the lives of believers today. It’s a powerful call to move beyond simply reading the Bible to truly receiving it as the life-changing Word of God.
