The Very Words of God
Answering, trembling, & delighting before the Holy Scriptures
In this short series we consider the nature of the Bible as Christian Scripture. Beginning with the authority of Jesus Himself and the posture of trust that He demonstrated toward His Bible, we consider what the Bible is as both the Holy Spirit-inspired divine word and the crafted, labored over human word. All of this that we might learn to stand at attention before the Bible, ready to answer, tremble, and delight in it as the place where we encounter the very words of our Lord.
