DESCRIPTION

"What does scripture say?” is a question which has echoed through a thousand debates in the life of the worldwide church. All churches have officially endorsed strong statements about the centrality of scripture and its authority in their mission, life, doctrine, and discipline. However there has been little or no agreement on what the Scripture means or how it might work in practice.

Individuals and churches have always struggled on how they should respond to issues such as homosexuality, and abortion, and especially on how they should interpret biblical passages that discuss these topics. As a result, these disagreements on how to interpret the bible often undermines our confidence in the authority of the Bible.

In this revised and expanded edition of the previously titled book The Last Word, Wright provides two case studies that delve into what it means to keep Sabbath and how Christians can defend marital monogamy. These studies offer not only bold biblical insights but also showcase Wright’s new model for how to interpret scripture and restore its role as the church’s main resource for teaching and guidance.

Wright renews our confidence in the Bible and shows how it can once again serve as the living Word of God for our lives.
