What is the Word of God to you? Is it an exquisite object to be placed upon a pedestal and admired? Is it a fetish or charm to be enshrined for man's worship and veneration? We are living in a day where more and more people know of the Bible's existence while fewer and fewer are believing and trusting it to be the very source of their daily living. Contemporary Christianity has entered into the era of Postmodernism firmly believing that the days of the absoluteness of scripture are over. The call now is to leave the authority of the Bible and seek more the experiences of human subjectivity. The rise of Neo-orthodoxy at the turn of the twentieth century opened a world of doubt and rejection concerning the literality of the Scriptures. Such teaching declared that if a scripture speaks to you personally, only then does it become the Word of God. As a result, man has placed himself into the realm of creating "The Word," and therefore an existential faith. Regardless of man's response, it must be eternally affirmed that the Bible is the Word of God, and true faith only comes by hearing the Word of God. - Back cover.
