Over the month of November, we have posted many articles here at Servants of Grace as part of a series on the Bible. The purpose of this series is to help Christians think through the doctrine of Scripture and provide practical guidance on not only how to read the Bible but to deal with objections and attacks on the Bible.
This series has endeavored to help you our readers think through the crucial doctrine of Scripture that is under attack. To that end the contributors have endeavored to help you understand how to read, study, meditate upon and contend for the Word of God. As we conclude this series, I encourage you to open your Bible and read it. The Word of God teaches about Jesus and how to obey Him by His grace.
I hope this series has encouraged you, exalted in King Jesus, and has helped you grow in the grace of God.
