Reflections with Andy - Luke 16: 14-18 - Using Scripture Well

This passage shows us how easy it is to miss the heart of God’s Word. The Pharisees loved money and used the law to justify themselves, twisting it whenever it suited them. Jesus calls them out and reminds us that while the gospel has come, the intent of God’s law still stands — it’s about love, mercy, and faithfulness, not control or appearances. The danger for us is the same: we can know Scripture, quote verses, even win arguments, and still miss Jesus in the process. The Bible isn’t meant to make us right — it’s meant to make us new. So today, let’s not read for information or justification, but for transformation. Open your Bible, listen for God’s voice, and let His Word shape your heart.
