- What does the word Scripture mean?
- Why are the Scriptures called “holy”? How do they differ from other writings?
- Who wrote the Scriptures? (There are two answers to this question. Both are correct. One answer is much more important than the other!)
- Why does our catechism specify that Scriptures are the books of the Old and New Testaments? Go to our confession of faith, the Second London Confession, chapter 1, paragraphs 2 & 3. What do you notice about the relationship between our catechism and confession?
- What does our catechism mean when it refers to the Holy Scriptures as our “certain rule”?
- Why does our catechism specify that the Scriptures are our certain rule in matters of “faith and obedience”?
- How should this truth be applied by us? How should it change the way we think, feel, speak, and act?
