Inspiration of Scripture describes

• A. To be insulted and persecuted for righteousness
• B. To be celebrated for wealth
• C. To be worshiped by all
• D. To be read only by scholars

Answer: (A)

Inspiration of Scripture describes how God guides the human authors to write truths for others, blending divine direction with their own voices and historical contexts. That guidance often leads those who proclaim and live out these truths to face opposition—from insult to persecution—because living righteously can challenge unjust powers and systems. This fits best with the idea that inspiration involves enduring hardship for righteousness. It isn’t about wealth being celebrated, being worshiped by all, or being read only by scholars; Scripture is presented as accessible to believers and sometimes at odds with those in authority, rather than simply being celebrated or restricted.
