What Is the Bible? (Basics of the Faith)

God's Word is the sword we wield in our day-to-day spiritual warfare—which means our beliefs about it are of practical importance! Losing confidence in the power and authority of Scripture can devastate us and leave us wide open to attack.


Here Guy Prentiss Waters invites readers to get a handle on the Word of God. Defining terms such as revelation, inspiration, and inerrancy, he clears away common misconceptions about them. By addressing leading objections that Christians encounter today, he equips us to assess and respond to criticisms of this vital doctrine.


Basics of the Faith booklets introduce readers to basic Reformed doctrine and practice. On issues of church government and practice they reflect that framework—otherwise they are suitable for all church situations.
