Brief Insights on Mastering Bible Doctrine: 80 Expert Insights, Explained in a Single Minute: 60-Second Scholar Series

Autor Michael S. Heiser
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 apr 2018
Clear comprehension of what the events in the Bible mean isn't a lost cause and doesn't require a PhD. This book is your guide to quickly deciphering key doctrines, providing expert observations so that you can comprehend more of Scripture than you ever have before.
There's a lot to think about in the Bible. We believe things on the basis of what it says, but Scripture doesn't spell everything out with equal clarity. For instance:
  • How should we really understand the idea of the Trinity or the concept of Hell?
  • Can unbelievers still please God?
  • Do the first chapters of Genesis allow for more than one interpretation of the creation?
What the Bible says requires deep thought in order to come to conclusions about our Heavenly Father. If all you know of Scripture is Bible characters and stories, you're missing its life-changing teachings. But you don't have to become a theologian yourself to participate in mature reflections on its messages.
In Brief Insights on Mastering Bible Doctrine (part of the 60 Second Scholar series), Michael S. Heiser distills the research of biblical scholars down to 80 easy-to-grasp key teachings of Scripture that:
  • Help readers learn how to think carefully and theologically about what the Bible says.
  • Clear up common misconceptions about the Bible's truths.
  • Cover the spectrum of Christian doctrine, succinctly drawing meaning from the Bible independent of denominational or political traditions.
With topics ranging from how the modern Bible came about to what God's Word tells us about the end times, this introdoctrine will give you the insights you need to hold your own in even the most animated biblical discussions.

THE BIBLE AND REVELATION1.Are you a splitter or a joiner?2.Don’t worry about which tradition has the right canon. 3.Minimizing the Bible’s human authorship undermines the doctrine of inspiration. 4.Canonicity is about God’s providence, not voting. 5.It’s bad theology to alter the Bible through our traditions.6.Your Bible is and isn’t inspired. 7.General revelation is important, but imprecise. 8.You can’t write about what you can’t know. 9.Any doctrine of biblical inerrancy depends upon defining what “error” means.10.The doctrine of illumination isn’t a promise that we’ll understand Scripture by osmosis. THE SPIRITUAL WORLD11.There was no rebellion of angels before the Fall. 12.Cosmic geography is a biblical concept.13.All isn’t one. 14.Angels image God, too. 15.“God of gods” means exactly what it says. 16.Israelites knew that the gods of the nations were real. 17.Angels don’t have wings. 18.Sometimes “satan” is not the Devil. 19.The heavenly host does more than sing around God’s throne like it was a camp fire. 20.Jesus believed in guardian angels.THE CHURCH21.John 6 is not about the Lord’s Supper.22.The communion table isn’t a confessional booth. 23.What was Paul thinking when he compared baptism and circumcision?24.Motion or meaning (in baptism)---what’s more important? 25.Let’s not confuse the eternal state with the canon.26.Sacraments or ordinances---a distinction without a difference? 27.Are spiritual gifts natural abilities or divine dispensations?28.When the twelve apostles died, apostolic authority died with them.29.The baptism of the Holy Spirit isn’t about speaking in tongues.ISRAEL 30.The historic covenants God made with Israel were conditionally unconditional. 31.The Tower of Babel is the backdrop for the Old Testament teaching on election.32.The Church is a new Israel.33.The Promised Land---forfeited, fulfilled or yet future?34.Israelite circumcision had theological meaning for women. 35.Israelites were forgiven through animal sacrifice in the Old Testament, but those sacrifices did not atone for ?many kinds of sin. GOD36.The presence of the Holy Spirit with believers in the Old Testament was occasional and temporary. 37.Jesus wasn’t God’s only son. 38.The firstborn of all creation didn’t have a beginning. 39.The Holy Spirit is not an impersonal force. 40.God came to people as a man before Jesus. 41.God neither causes nor needs evil.42.The humanity of Jesus is as important as his deity.43.Jesus is and isn’t God. 44.Just as Jesus is and isn’t God, the Spirit is and isn’t Jesus.45.Just because you can’t grasp a doctrine doesn’t justify denying that doctrine.46.There are two ways to think about the three Persons of the Godhead. 47.Don’t assume the doctrine of the incarnation is easy to grasp.48.God was never dumb. 49.God won’t allow human evil or ineptitude to overturn his plans. 50.Jesus as God and man---addition or subtraction? 51.Even Trinitarians ght over the Trinity. 52.God’s decrees and his intentions are not synonymous. HUMAN NATURE53.You aren’t a body, a soul, and a spirit. 54.Scripture is silent on the origin of the soul. 55.The image of God refers to what we are, not something put into us.56.God is unlike anything that exists on earth---except for us.57.You’re a sinner because you’re not God. 58.Can unbelievers ever please God?SALVATION59.For by grace you are saved through faith without works is dead.60.No one can merit God’s favor. 61.We cannot avoid sinning, and we contribute nothing to our salvation. 62.Without sin there is innocence before God---and eternal life through the resurrection of Christ.63.What isn’t gained by moral perfection can’t be lost by moral imperfection.64.If you believe, you are eternally secure; if you don’t, you aren’t. 65.You should think twice about being more offended by the cross than God.66.Don’t fall for the false dile
