Message summary & scripture references
There is a misconception among some believers about the purpose of the Bible. They study it looking to find God’s specific plan for their lives. However, they become disappointed when they can’t find it. The reason is that God designed the Bible to teach us spiritual principles, not to give us an exact blueprint for our lives and calling. However, if we learn the principles, then with help from the Holy Spirit, we can discover our own blueprint.
