How Did We Get Our Bible explained through revelation, inspiration, and canonization
- Revelation is God disclosing His will to human authors so His message is made known to the human mind.
- Inspiration is the Holy Spirit safeguarding the message so what is spoken and written is truly God-breathed.
- Canonization is the recognizing and collecting of authoritative writings that circulated among God’s people into the Bible we have today.
