Scripture Writing Plans for the Whole Year —
For February
What Is the Purpose of Scripture Writing?
Spending just ten minutes each day writing and meditating on Scripture can help you retain both the passage and its meaning.
Scripture writing is a simple yet powerful practice that deepens your understanding of God’s Word and strengthens your spiritual walk. The February Scripture Writing Plan focuses on the theme of “God’s Love for You.”
Special thanks to Corey Schissler for introducing me to scripture writing.
F.Y.I. For those interested in using a special journal for daily scripture writing, Amazon offers a variety of options, including hardbound, spiral-bound, and paperback journals specifically designed for scripture journaling.
ADOPTION
What Is the Biblical Understanding of Adoption?
The Greek word is huiothesia, from huios, “son,” and tithemi, “to set, put, or place.”
The word suggests the idea of putting one into the position of a son. It is used five times in the New Testament.
• The Christian’s reception of the Holy Spirit (see Acts 2:38) is God’s pledge that he has been adopted as a son. Unlike Christ, who was a son as to his very nature (i.e., deity; cf. Heb. 5:8), we have been adopted into the family of God by the new birth process (Jn. 3:3-5; cf. Gal. 4:5; Eph. 1:5).
• The future resurrection of the body on the last day is spoken of as an adoption (Rom. 8:23). This suggests there is a fuller measure of inheritance than what we presently enjoy.
• The nation of Israel experienced adoption in the sense it was selected and used as a divine instrument to facilitate the coming of the Messiah (Rom. 9:4). However, each Jew is accountable to God for their own personal obedience (Rom. 1:16-17).

ADULTERY
What Is the Biblical Definition of Adultery?
Adultery is sexual intimacy between a married person and someone other than their lawful mate. The act begins in the mind (Mt. 5:28; Mk. 7:21) and ultimately manifests in physical union (cf. Jn. 8:4). Adultery may be a casual “fling,” or it may involve a relationship under the guise of “marriage” (i.e., marriage outside the bounds of scriptural authorization).
Jesus taught that the person who divorces their spouse, unless the divorce is because of fornication and marries another, is committing adultery (Mt. 19:9).
Another passage suggests that a divorced woman, simply by being “put away,” becomes an adulteress (Mt. 5:32). However, this cannot be the passage’s meaning.
• The sense may be that the “put away” woman is exposed to the temptation of finding a new partner and becoming an adulteress.
• Or, the meaning could be that the mere fact that her husband has divorced her may lead others to suspect that she has committed adultery, hence hanging that reputation upon her.
Adultery is a forgivable sin, provided the sinful activity is discontinued, and God’s pardon is sought in the divinely prescribed fashion (1 Cor. 6:9-11).
