You don't honestly believe all that stuff in the Bible!' Challenged by her friends, and later as a student by theological teachers, Amy Orr-Ewing was determined to leave no stone unturned in her eagerness to prove that the Bible was unique and wholly reliable. Her passion drove her to complete an in-depth study of the answers to ten of the most frequently raised objections she encountered, including: * Isn't it all a matter of interpretation? * Can we know anything about history? * Are the original manuscripts reliable? * What about the canon? * What about other holy books? * Isn't the Bible sexist? * What about all the wars? * Isn't the Bible out of date on sex? * How can I know? Sensitively yet convincingly, the author addresses the issues and the arguments, showing that we have every reason to trust the Bible today. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

As would be expected from the title, the reliability of the Bible is discussed at length, but it also deals with less obvious questions such as those about sex, sexuality and war. These chapters were probably my favourite.
I liked the highly intellectual but readable style (post-modernism never seemed so easy to understand!)
The only criticism that I have was that I already knew much of the material, but as the intended audience was those with no or little knowledge about the Bible that's fine! ( )
