In this two-part series we examine what has happened to the roll of Scripture in our society over the last 400 years with the rise of modernism, and see how we as believers are called to live. Beginning with René Descartes and his assertion, “I think therefore I am,” the modern era was ushered in with a new found reliance on the individual. This human-centered thinking has affected and continues to affect the church today especially when it comes to understanding the authority of Scripture. Do we believe because the Bible says it or do we believe the Bible because we can back it up with reason, logic, or understanding? As you watch this presentation, consider what guides your own understanding of the authority of Scripture.
