Our position on scripture - 4 Main Terms: (a) Inspired - 2 Tim 3:16 (b) Inerrant - True: Ps 19:9, Ps 119:86, Ps 119:142 - Tested: Ps 12:6, Ps 19:7-8 (c) Authoritative - 1689 Baptist Confession of faith 1:10 (d) Sufficient - 2 Tim 3:16 - 17, 2 Pet 1:3 (Sinclair F.) (4.) Jesus - What was Jesus’ position on scripture? (MT 4:4, Mt 22:29, Jn 17:17) (5.) Apostles - What did the Apostle’s have to say about the scriptures and their relationship to them? (Jn 16:13, Jn 21:24, 2 Peter 1:16-20, 2 Tim 2:15, 2 Cor 6:7, Eph 1:13, Col 1:5, 2 Tim 3:16 - James 1:18) (6.) How is the Bible commonly attacked today? Two primary ways: It’s not God’s Word (Gen 3) Radical new ways of interpretation (poor hermeneutics) (7.) Review: Stick with the Bible Rest all upon it, test all by it (Isa 8:20) Be grounded in it, believe every word Be highly suspicious of radical new interpretations So that’s it for today’s episode on Bibliology, AKA being Grounded in Scripture.
