Discover why treating the Bible like a buffet—picking what we like and skipping what we don't—leads to spiritual malnourishment. This message explores how we often embrace comfortable passages like John 3:16 or 'do not judge' while avoiding challenging teachings on marriage, sexuality, human depravity, or exclusivity of salvation through Christ. Learn how Scripture can be viewed as three sections: the Morality Bar (moral teachings), the Doctrine Buffet (theological truths), and the Prosperity Smorgasbord (promises and challenges). Jesus emphasized living by 'every word from God' and perfectly fulfilled all Scripture Himself. Because of Christ's work, we can approach the entire Bible with thanksgiving, hunger, and boldness. Practical application includes identifying teachings you've struggled to accept and studying them with an open heart.
