Throughout centuries the Bible has come under vicious attack from critics outside the church. In some instances, the Bible was ridiculed, banned, and even burned. Yet the Bible survived as the inspired, trustworthy, and authoritative revelation of God's will.Today, however, an assault on the Bible is coming from people claiming to be Christians and occupying positions of responsibility in the church. A careful look at contemporary theological scene will reveal that much of today's theological activity is directed towards discrediting the Bible or creating doubts over its trustworthiness and absolute reliability. Many theologians in the classrooms, many preachers in the pulpits, and many leaders in administrative positions are subtly creating doubts in the minds of their hearers by suggesting that the Bible can no longer be fully trusted on almost any issue.Contrary to the claims of the Bible, these dissenting theological voices allege that fulfilled prophecies of the Bible were actually written after the events took place. The Bible's history, they say, is not historical, its science is not scientific, its stories are myths, its facts are fables, its heroes were immoral, and its ethics are not practical today. All these they present as new views of the Bible that will bring about a greater appreciation of the beauty of the Bible! To make this perspective palatable to unsuspecting believers, these critics have come up with different theories to explain the nature of the Bible (inspiration) and the appropriate method for its interpretation.This book (Receiving the Word) is one of the few works that effectively explains the root cause of the doubts over the Word of God. It explains and addresses the core issues raised by contemporary highercriticism (the historicalcritical method). Christians of all stripesnot just Seventhday Adventistswill be greatly benefited by this insightful book. At the heart of the Christian faith is the authority of the Bible. Considerable confusion abounds today over the nature of biblical authority and its interpretation.
