Strong Foundations: The Bible

Speaker: Pastor Virgil Stokes

Series: Strong Foundations

What we believe about the Bible determines how we live out our faith.

Three basic positions concerning authority. Who determines what we believe?

The Church as final authority -.

Christian Existentialism - The Bible is true except where it contradicts my experience. (The most common)

Scripture is truth - experience has its explanation in the Word, whether I see it or not.

We believe the Bible to be the directly inspired Word of God. It is our final authority for faith and practice. Our job is to rightly divide. 2 Timothy 3:15-16 / 2 Timothy 2:15

Todays Bible is complete and can never be changed, added to, or reduced. Numbers 23:19 / Revelation
