"A very significant book probably the most serious attempt for many years to bring together statements by scholars who accept biblical authority as the primary source of revelation, not from the position of a 'fundamentalist doctrine of inerrancy but from one that is critically honest in listening to God's authoritative Word in the Scriptures." ROBERT S. PAUL Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary Contemporary controversies over the inspiration and authority of the Bible have left many people confused. The host of specialized studies makes it difficult for a reader to be introduced to the nature of Scripture without consulting a number of sources. Now Donald McKim has brought together in one volume much of the best that has been thought and written on the subject. In each of the three major divisions of the subject of authority doctrine and its development, and current views sources and canon, essays from major works on Scripture are presented. The writers, including such important scholars as C.K. Barrett, G. C. Berkouwer, Dewey M. Beegle, Avery Dulles, and F. F. Bruce, present a well-conceived middle position in the biblical authority debate. THE AUTHORITATIVE WORD explores the breadth and depths of the church's understandings of the nature of Scripture, and shows how the Bible can continue to speak authoritatively in the present day. The comprehensive annotated bibliography will be helpful to those who wish to investigate the issue even more thoroughly. DONALD K. MCKIM is Assistant Professor of Theology at the University of Dubuque Theological Seminary. He is the author of THE CHURCH: ITS EARLY LIFE, and co-author (with Jack B. Rogers) of THE AUTHORITY AND INSPIRATION OF THE BIBLE AN HISTORIAL 220.060802819486 Transformatio Library Bandung Theological Seminary 220.06 McK a 2 E12000301 Non Fiction 220.06 McK a 2 5052489.jpg 47244 2014-12-11 08:36:43 2024-12-05 18:56:47 machine generated
