Written for Us: Receiving God’S Words In The Bible

Understanding what the Bible teaches about itself is an issue of central importance. However, correct theologies of the Bible can be expressed in non-biblical categories; and it would be foolish to believe of the Bible what it does not claim for itself, whether implicitly or explicitly. Peter Adam’s conviction is that there is a coherent ‘biblical theology of the Bible’. In this wide-ranging volume, he searches the Scriptures to find their answer to the question of their identity and use, and expounds the following summary phrase: * Receiving God’s words * Written for his people * By his Spirit * About his Son This fresh, energetic presentation is a valuable complement to the author’s previous works on the function and application of Scripture in Christian life and ministry.
