Essential to proper "study" of the Bible.,
By Joel D. Weber - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: John Stott on the Bible and the Christian Life: Six Sessions on the Authority, Interpretation, and Use of Scripture (DVD)
I have used this DVD series in a large Sunday School and found it to be at once very effective and thought provoking.Stott offers proofs for the authority of the Scriptures and the special authority of the Apostles, through careful inductive study of grammar, outside historical sources, context, cross-reference etc... You will be offered the needed tools to properly examine any part of the Scriptures yourself, and know that the Truth of them could be tested and found. His prose and pace are quitessentially British and display both his dry wit and aged wisdom. You will be given many, many clear examples of his study tools. I must admit that he makes one great contradiction or display of inappropriate inductive study of Scriptures when after affirming the proper use of grammar/context, he goes on to posit that "in his opinion" the flood was not a global event but a very geographically localized event. This does not take away from his superbe presentation and I can use it as a perfect example of how not to impose your particular interpretation upon a clear text. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful:

A foundational lecture series on the Bible by a world-renowned Bible teacher!,
By Deepak K. Singh "DKS" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: John Stott on the Bible and the Christian Life: Six Sessions on the Authority, Interpretation, and Use of Scripture (DVD)
Author and Pastor Dr.John R. W. Stott is known worldwide as a preacher, evangelist and communicator of Scripture. His books which include some classic bestsellers like Basic Christianity and The Cross of Christ, have sold millions of copies around the world and in dozens of languages. Stott was honored by Time magazine in 2005 as one of the "100 Most Influential People in the World".In this six-session DVD curriculum, Stott addresses key areas of Christian beliefs absolutely central to Christianity in his typical clear, balanced, biblically based, and intellectually rigorous manner. The study sessions include: 1. The Authority of the Bible 2. The Nature of the Bible: Double Authorship 3. The Interpretation of the Bible 4. The Problem of Culture 5. Developing a Christian Mind 6. Making an Impact on Society The above six penetrating sessions running about 5 hours not only lay a solid foundation for understanding and studying the Word of God but also encourages Christians to develop a Christian mind in order to impact the society they are living in. The sessions shall prove to be one of the most insightful Bible learning resources ever produced on DVDs for the students of the Bible. It also includes outlines and discussion questions for group settings. All in all, this is a must Bible Study Tool. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful:

Stott on the Bible and the Christian Life.,
By John M. Tatum - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: John Stott on the Bible and the Christian Life: Six Sessions on the Authority, Interpretation, and Use of Scripture (DVD)
John Stott may be the best lecturer I have ever listened to. In these lectures he is at his best. You will definitely have a better understanding of what Christianity is all about after hearing these lectures.
