Description:
Volume One of the Biblical Forum Series examines historic approaches to the question of biblical authority and responds to contemporary challenges to the Bible. “Many doctrines are vital to the Christian faith: Christology and soteriology, for instance, immediately come to mind,” observes Douglas Moo in the preface. “But no doctrine is more foundational than biblical authority. The Bible is our source for all doctrine. Believe the wrong thing about the Bible, and all other doctrines are, at least potentially, threatened.”

Included are chapters on the views of Augustine by Rodney L Peterson, Luther by Eugene Klug, Erasmus by Bruce E Benson, and Coleridge by Daniel Hoffman. J.P. Moreland examines contemporary attacks on biblical authority in “The Rationality of Belief in Inerrancy” and Carl F.H.Henry surveys the contemporary theological scene in “The Cultural Relativizing of Revelation.”

This reflective and insightful volume draws from the work of evangelical scholars and writers that originally appeared in Trinity Journal, published by Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in Deerfield, Illinois. 240 pages, paperback
