This SUnday: The Alphabet of Faith: A Series on Important Words and Stories of Scripture
The Bible is both one long story and countless smaller stories. It is a love story to us. In the first part of my sermon I will look at how the Bible has been viewed by different folks: north star, rulebook, guidebook, self-help book, weapon, etc. I will hope to show how the Bible is the Spirit’s authoritative witness and guide. The Bible is not just a book on the shelf but a living word carried into the world.
From the Confession of 1967:
“The one sufficient revelation of God is Jesus Christ, the Word of God incarnate, to whom the Holy Spirit bears unique and authoritative witness through the Holy Scriptures, which are received and obeyed as the word of God written.” (Confession of 1967, 9.27)
This excerpt emphasizes:
Christ as the living Word.
Scripture as the Spirit’s authoritative witness.
Our call to receive and obey the Bible as God’s Word written.
