8 Weeks
Mondays, 6:30p - 8p
Starting Jan 20

This class is available for anyone who would like to attend.

Registration is needed. There is no fee for this class, but there is a recommended book that you may purchase to complement the lectures.

This course introduces students to Bibliology (or the doctrine of Scripture) with particular emphasis on internalizing the case for Scripture. The doctrines of revelation, inspiration, infallibility, inerrancy, authority, canonicity, illumination, perspicuity, animation, sufficiency, and preservation will be explored. Special attention will be given to the recollection, memorization, and application of biblical passages pertinent to the doctrine of Scripture.

The recommended book for this course is Light in a Dark Place: The Doctrine of Scripture (Foundations of Evangelical Theology) by John S. Feinberg (see page numbers below).
