History of the Bible
September 12 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm
The Bible is the foundation of Christianity, but did you ever wonder how it came to be? Come, join our class, The History of the Bible and find out.
In this overview class we will talk about:
- How we got the 66 books of the Bible, and who decided what to put in and what to leave out?
- Who wrote these books that make up the Bible, and when?
- How and why the Bible is organized–Old Testament and New Testament?
- What are the Apocrypha and why do some denominations include these books in the Bible?
- What are the Gnostic Gospels and why are these not part of the Bible?
- Why are there so many different English translations of the Bible? What are the differences? Are some better than others?
