Confidence in the Bible

2 Peter 1:19-21 And we have the prophetic word more fully confirmed, to which you will do well to pay attention as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts, knowing this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture comes from someone's own interpretation. For no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit. 
Peter, sharing about the things God had revealed to him, knew that many would doubt what he said.  Yet he was unshaken, because he knew the God who had revealed these things, and he knew His Word was reliable, trustworthy, and not just some human ideas.  God has been at work, tell us what we need to know.  We can make decisions and take action with confidence, if we trust what He says.
