What books and words make up the Christian Scriptures? What do the Scriptures claim for themselves? How can we know the Scriptures are true? How are the Scriptures confirmed by the peculiar glory of God? John Piper examines the Bible’s self-authenticating nature and unique ability to showcase God’s unmatched glory, laying a solid foundation for the belief that God’s Word is absolutely perfect and totally reliable. Says the author, ‘I do not merely hold a view of Scripture. I am held. The glory of God shining through his Word has been an irresistible treasure.’ The Bible is not a masterpiece hanging on the wall of an Alpine chalet. Rather, it is a window on the wall through which we see and admire the stunning Alpine view.

Incest, murder, rape, personal and international intrigue and betrayal, a grandmother who murdered her own grandchildren, kings who slaughtered babies, battles, wars, friendship, hatred, love, poetry, sins you would not want your children to know about and heroics retold to children everywhere — that is just the beginning of what you find in the Bible. If you have never read it, the Bible is probably not what you expect. From the beginning in Genesis to the final Revelation of Jesus Christ, the central focus through all of Scripture is not mankind or any nation or group of people or individual, but God Himself. As history and God's plan unfold in the pages of Scripture, we see ourselves for who and what we are in the light of the revelation of the Glory of God in Christ Jesus. Behold His Glory. You've heard the kind of references people make to God and how the name of Jesus Christ is abused on the street. Do you know what God says about Himself?
