The Bible Standard: Authority, Inspiration, and Preservation

Bible answers to questions about the Bible compared to other religious standards, authorities, guides, and creeds

What standard of authority should we follow in religion: the Bible or other religious guides? These free studies answer your questions about how God wants people to determine their faith and practice. Is the Bible inspired by God? Has it been preserved accurately through the years? Should we follow creeds, tradition, councils, man-made rules, or human wisdom? What about following conscience, family religion, the views of a preacher or scholar, modern revelations or the Old Testament Law of Moses? #Bible #BibleStudy
