Canon and Covenant: How God Preserved His Word Through History - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Which books belong in the Bible — and how do we know?

In a generation flooded with claims of new revelation, lost gospels, and prophetic voices competing for the Church's allegiance, the question of the biblical canon has never been more urgent. Canon and Covenant: How God Preserved His Word Through History walks the reader through the full historical and theological case for the 66-book Bible, not as a human construction assembled by powerful councils, but as a divinely inspired collection recognized by the faithful across twenty centuries of persecution, heresy, and spiritual warfare.

Drawing on the history of the Hebrew Tanakh, the apostolic transmission of the New Testament, the criteria used by the early church to test the authenticity of a writing, and the providential preservation of Scripture from ancient manuscripts to the Bible, this book equips believers to answer the attacks on the canon that are coming from every direction, from Rome's claim that the Church produced the Bible, to the New Apostolic Reformation's functionally open canon, to progressive Christianity's ongoing revision of what Scripture is allowed to say.

Canon and Covenant is the fifth volume in The Final Convergence Series. It builds on What Is Truth?, The Simplicity of the Gospel, Why I Believe the Bible, and Biblicism, and lays the foundation for everything that follows.

The canon is not a committee decision. It is a covenant document. And it is worth every cost it has ever demanded.
