The Bible’s Rationale For Itself

We now move onto an important apologetic concept for John Frame and that is what The Bible’s rationale for itself is. A defense of the Gospel – the Good News of salvation in Jesus Christ resides in the defense of the Scriptures.

Frame’s take is presuppositional in nature and also critical of so-called Bible scholars involved in biblical criticism. Patrick also provides some scathing critique of a film from 2010 that kinda falls in line of what the great philosopher is talking about – we hope.
