Throughout this season, we will answer an important question: “How can we be confident that we correctly understand the Bible?”

Pastor Mark’s 5 (hopefully) easy-to-remember categories:

1. All Scripture is inspired, inerrant word of God - not just the stuff we like.

2. All of Scripture is centered on Christ.

3. The mission of God (Missio Dei) is evident in every book of the Bible.

4. All of Scripture's passages have one of two possible messages: Law or Gospel.

5. The best way to understand how to apply that Bible to your life today is to understand what it meant to the first writers/hearers.
