Scripture Is Self-Attesting

74 Words1 Page

Scripture is self-attesting, due to the fact that God is sovereign. His words have been declared in Scripture. Therefore; since it is Spirit led then one can truthfully say that Scripture is written, inspired, and approved by God. The entire Word of God gives multiple verses of Scripture that show God’s commandments and words, thereby, showing the evidence within its pages the truth of scripture. Self-attesting renders God’s Word an absolute truth. (Grudem, 37).

  • Discussion Board Regarding The Bible

    I enjoyed very much all the good points mentioned in your discussion board regarding the Bible. I do believe that, it is important to learn the history, meaning and behind God’s plan for the Bible in our regular day lives. In the meantime, I would like to highlight the fact that, nevertheless, the Bible is all God’s Word, but, it is also good, in order to better appreciate, that Christians study other scriptures such as Old and New Testament, Gospel, the Psalms, Proverbs, Wisdom, and so forth. There are differences about the scriptures, for example, the Bible describes God’s word to us, whereas the psalms, are prayers written to God as poetry is set to music. As stated in 2 Timothy 3:16-17, “All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable

    In 2 Timothy 3:16 Paul refers to Scripture as “breathed out by God.” This is a verse we should memorize and cling to. But for many Christians, this might be the only proof that would come to mind. The issue of the authority and inspiration of Scripture is not just a topic to be debated by scholars, nor is it simply an apologetic issue to be defended against skeptics. This is a truth that shapes how we approach God and how we listen when He speaks.

For Nature speaks a universal language that any man, woman, or child can read to learn about God and his salvation. This language can’t be faked or changed as it fits the human. this language eliminates the need for the missionaries, because all humans have it where every they go.”

    INTRODUCTION The authority of the Scripture is fundamental to evangelical faith and witness. But at the same time, not all evangelicals affirm the inerrancy of the scripture. Biblical inerrancy affirms that the biblical text is accurate and totally free from error of any kind. The difficulty in affirming the inerrancy of scripture does not seem to be so much on the spiritual and moral teachings of the Bible, however, the difficulty perhaps seems to emerge on the issue of accuracy in other disciplines such as history, science and acheology.

    There are clear statements that indicate the Bible is not only God breathed, but it is a whole and true document. The Rock not only mentions the Bible being God breathed, “Holy men of God, being moved by the Holy Spirit, wrote every word of Scripture, and it is divinely and uniquely inspired, being absolutely trustworthy in all matters of faith and conduct,” but it explicitly states that because all scripture is God breathed, “all Scripture in the original manuscripts are inerrant in that it conveys exactly what God wants us to know and is complete in it’s present form.” The Nicene Creed never once discusses the Bible nor it’s inerrancy. It is interesting to see that they left this out and also committed the idea that God spoke every word of the Bible and it was written by his holy
