Overview

In 2 Timothy 3:16–17 Paul writes, “All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.” God demands that Christians submit to the authority and sufficiency of Scripture. We can rely on it to guide us in every aspect of our lives. But how do we respond to controversial contemporary issues? Does Scripture have all the answers?

Biblical Sufficiency Applied approaches various controversial topics in light of Scripture, among them parental discipline, the new perspective on Paul, worship, testing God, Rob Bell’s Love Wins, and more! It will challenge and encourage readers to be confident in Scripture’s sufficiency and to use it as the eminent guide to Christian living. All Scripture passages are linked to your favorite Bible translation in your library. With the advanced reference features of Logos Bible Software, you can perform powerful searches by topic or Scripture reference—finding, for example, every mention of “discipline” or “worship.”
