The Canon and Inspiration of the Scriptures
Many Christians of various backgrounds can all agree on the statement "The Bible is the Word of God". However, many people think that the Bible may be partially inspired and be a mix of error and truth or may be just a collection of good stories and ethical suggestions. How should the Christian respond to attacks on the inerrancy of Scripture and its authority over the Christian life? Are the Scriptures the absolute authority or does the church have equal authority or supreme authority over the Scriptures? Every generation within the church has had to answer these types of questions and to defend The Bible alone as the Word of God. Come hear Dr. Michael Kruger speak on various issues surrounding the Bible including its authority, how the books of the Bible were determined to be included in the Bible, and other topics related to the Scriptures.
