Scripture And The Authority Of God

'This book approaches the question of 'the authority of scripture' from a different angle. It is, after all, God himself who possesses all authority; and God's 'authority' is not primarily about giving right answers to disputed questions, but about his sovereign, saving purposes being accomplished through Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. What might it mean for the Bible to be a vessel or channel of that powerful 'authority'?' 'Asking the question this way round opens up new angles on many other issues: the relation of scripture, tradition and reason; the place of experience; the many-sided problems of the use and abuse of the Bible in relation to personal and public life.' -BOOK JACKET.
