Ligonier Teaching Series - Knowing Scripture: Study Guide

Teaching Series Description:

Knowing Scripture shows us that it is the privilege and duty of every believer to diligently study God's Word. It reminds us that along with this privilege comes the responsibility to interpret the Bible correctly. Dr. R.C. Sproul teaches that interpreting Scripture, like all sciences, is governed by rules. He lays out the basic guidelines for correctly understanding, interpreting, and applying Scripture, using time-tested principles from Scripture to show how to find the true meaning of its contents. This series is a great study tool for both beginning and long-time Bible readers.
