The Bible: Its Authority, Canonization, Inspiration & Interpretation
Our ECO Essential Tenets declare “the clearest declaration of God’s glory is found in His Word….” But how do we know it’s authoritative? How do we read and understand it? How was it even put together? Is it true that we can trust a book written more than 2000 years ago? In this course we’ll explore and answer those questions, specifically how we can know and trust the authority of the Bible, as well as how the Bible was put together (canonization) and what criteria were used to determine which “books” would be included. Perhaps the hardest part is understanding how to interpret the Bible – we’ll practice that, too!
