In this opening month of a new year, we continue to explore some of the foundational elements of the Christian life. Following themes of ‘Holy God, Holy People’ and ‘Jesus Christ, yesterday today and forever’, we turn our attention to ‘the Bible’. How do we read the holy scriptures, and why? What are the broad contours of the history they share? What is the overarching message of the witness of the Bible?
Martin Luther’s quote that ‘the Bible is the cradle in which Christ is laid’ provides a wonderful framework for this morning’s exploration and celebration.
Scripture readings from both Old and New Testaments, and hymns that range from something contemporary by Amy Grant to something classic from the Scottish Psalter of 1650 (which is certainly appropriate the Sunday before Robbie Burns Day!)
