If you missed it, the 1960s were somewhat chaotic. Happy Days (for some of us) gave way to nuclear scare, assassinations, war, civil unrest, free love, hippies, outlawing prayer in public schools, and more.
Beyond the news, more than 100 distinguished Bible scholars from several countries and many denominations took on a task. They produced the New International Version of the Bible, translating Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek into clear English as accurately as possible.
These believers who worshiped the same Lord, but never together, united in a common purpose.
We partly understand why different denominations have formed. And why some of them have departed "sound doctrine" altogether.
How about your doctrine? 😉 vff
Is it strict election, or does God want everyone to be saved?
Are you pre-trib or mid-trib?
If once saved, are we always saved?
Our new series on Views - coming next Monday - asks:
Can we make the main thing the main thing?
Can we - using our Bibles and prayer - pursue God for himself, without majoring in elective courses? Can we be people of faith and also live with certainty that God exists? Many in the Bible did just that.
He is real. He may surprise us with his presence. Or, He might be silent, then a day comes when we realize He was and is looking out for us.
Tomorrow: Why the Holy Bible?
