September Book of The Month
HARD SAYINGS OF THE BIBLE BY F.F. BRUCE
As a church, we gladly affirm that, “The Word of God is clear, and everything we need in order to know, love, and fellowship with God can be plainly understand through ordinary means” (SGC Statement of Faith 1.3). However, though the Word is clear, we also confess that “not all Scripture is equally plain,” - some parts are harder than others to understand and apply to our lives. Even the Apostle Peter thought so (2 Peter 3:16)! That’s why this month we’re recommending, Hard Sayings of the Bible by F.F. Bruce. A book to guide your grappling with the most difficult verses in the Bible. From answering, “What is the unforgivable sin?” to “Did the sun really stand still in Joshua 10?” This volume, which contains 46 specific entries for the Gospel of Mark alone, will benefit your study of Scripture for the remainder of our current sermon series and for years to come.
