A Danger that Threatens

SKU: Q-121 | by

Like the epistles of the New Testament, this booklet is addressed primarily to those who are already members of the Lord’s church, and like many Bible passages, it constitutes a call to vigilance. There is a need to examine ourselves in the light of Scripture to be sure that we are not straying from the Bible pattern. Of particular concern is the introduction into the church of organizational structures and methods of financing the work that are not authorized by the Word. The biggest part of this booklet consists of previously published texts, in particular Chemin de Vérité Vol. 3, No. 1 ; Vol. 6, No. 1 ; Vol. 9, No. 2 ; Vol. 15, No. 5 ; and a chapter of the book How to Understand the Bible.

  • How to Understand the Bible

    SKU: GR-10 | by

    This book examines some important principles for correctly interpreting the Bible and correctly applying it to our time. It is written in a way that is accessible to as many people as possible, for the Bible is not the exclusive domain of scholars. Fortunately, the rules to respect are matters of common sense: for example, one must take into account the grammar, the context, and everything else the Bible says about a given subject. Additionally, one must learn to recognize whether a passage uses figurative language or if it must be understood to the letter. Finally, one must avoid certain attitudes that hinder understanding. Whether you are a preacher or Bible teacher, a new Christian, or even an enthusiast who sees a need for some advice about reading the Bible in an intelligent manner before drawing conclusions about it, this book is for you.
