Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God’s Word has always had enemies, but in recent years the inspiration and authority of Scripture have been attacked with renewed vigor. Respected scholar D. A. Carson has written widely on the nature of Scripture over the past thirty years, and here presents a timely collection of his work in two parts. In part 1, Carson selects essays written on such themes as how to interpret the Bible, recent developments in the doctrine of Scripture, unity and diversity in the New Testament, and redaction criticism. Presenting a theologically balanced and confessional perspective, Carson defines the terms of a number of debates, critiques interpretive methods and theories, and suggests positive guidelines for future action. Part 2 presents critical reviews of nine books dealing with the inspiration and authority of Scripture. Though substantial in content, Carson’s detailed reviews will foster careful thought and perspective in those who are relatively new to the debates surrounding biblical inspiration and authority. This volume is a diverse collection that will prove to be a helpful resource to both seasoned pastors and scholars and those who are just starting serious study of the Bible.

Download or read book How to Read the Bible Well written by Stephen Burnhope and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-04-23 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to Read the Bible Well takes on the big questions about the Bible that we've always wanted to ask. What do people mean when they say it's the Word of God? In what way, exactly? How can an ancient world text be offering supposedly timeless truths? Can we really take what "the Bible says" as authoritative for life today? Isn't it obviously sexist and outdated? Do we have to believe in Adam and Eve, and the world being made in six days? Why did God command genocide in the Old Testament? Are people really going to burn in hell for eternity? Why is there evil and suffering in the world? And, how can we explain the Big Story of the Bible, from cover to cover, in ways that will make sense to people today? Stephen Burnhope suggests there are very good answers to all of these questions and more--once we know how to read the Bible well!

Download or read book The Rise and Fall of the Bible written by Timothy Beal and published by HMH. This book was released on 2011-02-16 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A professor of religion offers an “engrossing and excellent” look at how the Good Book has changed—and changed the world—through the ages (Publishers Weekly, starred review). In a lively journey from early Christianity to the present, this book explores how a box of handwritten scrolls became the Bible, and how the multibillion-dollar business that has brought us Biblezines and Manga Bibles is selling down the Book’s sacred capital. Showing us how a single official text was created from the proliferation of different scripts, Timothy Beal traces its path as it became embraced as the word of God and the Book of books. Christianity thrived for centuries without any Bible—there was no official canon of scriptures, much less a book big enough to hold them all. Congregations used various collections of scrolls and codices. As the author reveals, there is no “original” Bible, no single source text behind the thousands of different editions on the market today. The farther we go back in the holy text’s history, the more versions we find. In calling for a fresh understanding of the ways scriptures were used in the past, the author of Biblical Literacy offers the chance to rediscover a Bible, and a faith, that is truer to its own history—not a book of answers, but a library of questions.

Download or read book Dissecting the Bible written by Doc Skeptic and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2012-12-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Miracles form the bedrock on which Christianity rests. The Bible abounds with well-known miracle stories such as the creation and the ten plagues. However, medical miracles form the bulk of the stories. Throughout its pages the blind receive their sight, the deaf their hearing and the mute their speech. Even more spectacular biological claims such as the virgin birth and the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ form the basis upon which the deity of the second member of the Trinity is based. But are these stories true? "Doc" Skeptic, MD, a former devout Christian and a trained physician examines these ancient claims in detail through the dual lenses of logic and science and shows them to be largely untrustworthy. It is the author's hope that the intellectually honest Bible student may find in these pages the information needed to critically and independently evaluate for themselves the astounding claims contained therein.

Download or read book The Jefferson Bible written by Thomas Jefferson and published by Wyatt North Publishing, LLC. This book was released on 2014-01-05 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Jefferson Bible, or The Life and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth as it is formally titled, was a book constructed by Thomas Jefferson in the latter years of his life by cutting and pasting numerous sections from various Bibles as extractions of the doctrine of Jesus. Jefferson's composition excluded sections of the New Testament containing supernatural aspects as well as perceived misinterpretations he believed had been added by the Four Evangelists. In 1895, the Smithsonian Institution under the leadership of librarian Cyrus Adler purchased the original Jefferson Bible from Jefferson's great-granddaughter Carolina Randolph for $400. A conservation effort commencing in 2009, in partnership with the museum's Political History department, allowed for a public unveiling in an exhibit open from November 11, 2011, through May 28, 2012, at the National Museum of American History.

Download or read book Dissect The Bible written by D Labisi and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-10-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need to accurately interpret the various religious books cannot be overemphasized. Inaccurate interpretation and hence misunderstanding of the books has led to a persistent plethora of social issues all over the world. One of these numerous issues is religious intolerance and its associated problems. It is therefore important that accurate and concise explanations of the contents of the religious books are made available. This will facilitate rational understanding and assimilation of the books, prevent unnecessary brain washing and enhance tolerance. This project, ''Dissect The Bible'' represents an objective and logical endeavour at filling the gaps existing within the body of knowledge relating to Bible interpretation. The project employs a methodology of logically analysing every verse of each of the various Books making up the Bible (i.e from Genesis to Revelation) and bringing out the relationships between the various verses and chapters, in the process, establishing that there is no gap in the Bible and it can indeed be studied scientifically. This unique analysis and interpretation of the Bible helps to explain, clarify and demystify a number of fundamental Biblical issues. While this book is of particular relevance to scholars, researchers and religious and social critics, this project is also useful for anyone with an open mind and a desire to further understand the Bible.
