Sharing Good News By DOROTHY FILLINGAME The good news from the Word today comes from II Timothy 3:14-17. “But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; and that from a child thou hast known the holy scripture, which are able to make the wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.” I’m so glad we have the Word of God today. I hope you make it a part of everyday to read and study God’s Word for yourself, )|( 9|( 9|( 4e The West Craven Church of God enjoyed a cookout at Frank’s Landing, Friday evening. May 8. Rev.
