Stop Trusting Man's Word
So many in the church today are falling victim to the Genesis 3 attack, “Did God really say…?” They question His Word and instead place their trust in the fallible words and “knowledge” of man. In this DVD, Ken Ham challenges Christians to hold a high view of Scripture—all of Scripture. He examines Genesis 1:2–5 and other Bible passages to gain a firm grasp on the Bible’s authority and authenticity. The undermining of God’s Word will have lasting effects on future generations; we must repent of our desire to gain the praise of man rather than the “well done” of a holy God.
