Synopsis

This book explores how the role of the Bible in shaping Christian theology has transformed throughout history. The author argues that the traditional use of the Bible as an equal and infallible authority has become untenable in the light of modern scholarly research. This perspective has created a problem for theology, as it must now find a way to use the Bible that is both faithful to its historical context and relevant to the needs of the present day. The author offers a new understanding of the Bible's role, arguing that it should be used as a guide and inspiration rather than as a set of authoritative doctrines. By doing so, theology can break free from its reliance on outdated methods and embrace a more dynamic and responsive approach to the study of God and the Christian faith.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
