A moving call to re-examine the Bible,
By Andy Kaylor (Beaverton, OR United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Why God's Word is All We Need (Today's Issues) (Paperback)
When I ordered this book, I expected it to be a defense of the Protestant position of Sola Scriptura, but to my surprise it is instead aimed at correcting liberal Christian views of how we form relationships with God. The book opens with a story of a Christian woman who was waiting for God to tell her directly that she should make amends with her estranged parents, when a friend told her to open her Bible to Exodus 20:12 and read. The book proceeds in this direction emploring the reader to use his or her Bible as a means to form a personal relationship with God rather than expecting God to speak by direct revelation. It also briefly defends the authority of the Bible against such attacks as higher criticism and the Jesus Seminar. Despite the "Why" in the title, I would have to say that it is more pastoral than apologetic. Even so, I recommend it. |
