Book Description
THE BIBLE,
- Why should we believe, as Jesus did, that it is ‘the mouth of God’?
- When did it come into existence?
- Is it inerrant?
- What do we need to learn in order to understand it better?
- How does its teaching change our lives?
In From the Mouth of God, Sinclair B Ferguson answers these and other important questions about trusting, reading, and applying the Bible.
