Kevin DeYoung's short, clear introduction to what Scripture says about itself - its sufficiency, clarity, authority and necessity. Read more.
Can we trust the Bible completely? Is it sufficient for our complicated lives? Can we really know what it teaches? With his characteristic wit and clarity, Kevin DeYoung has written an accessible introduction to the doctrine of Scripture that answers the questions raised by Christians and non-Christians alike, working from what the Bible claims about itself rather than from external argument.
The chapters follow the classical attributes - sufficiency, clarity, authority, necessity - and the final chapter walks through Psalm 119 as the book's own summary of the case. DeYoung is explicit that he is restating historic Christian conviction rather than innovating. Short, hardbound, and a good first book on the subject for a thoughtful lay reader or a new believer.
