BOOK DESCRIPTION
B.B. Warfield was one of the most influential Christian theologians and scholars of his generation. A brilliant mind, careful exegete, and fearless defender of the faith, he stood boldly against theological liberalism and higher criticism and helped lay the foundation for modern conservative evangelical theology regarding the Bible.
 
Known as a leading defender of the inspiration and authority of Scripture, Warfield’s writings have influenced generations of believers and scholars. This updated edition brings his classic The Inspiration and Authority of the Bible into the 21st century — preserving his rigorous scholarship and unwavering commitment to the truth of God’s Word while adapting it for today’s readers. This is not a reprint of B.B. Warfield’s original work.
 
More than a century has passed since Warfield first wrote on the inspiration and authority of the Bible. While the core truths he defended remain powerful and unchanging, the challenges to biblical authority have evolved, and the way these truths are presented can benefit from fresh language and contemporary context.
 
This edition is a 21st-century update of Warfield’s classic. I have kept his core arguments, deep reverence for Scripture, and careful reasoning intact, while adapting the language and presentation for today’s world. The heart of the book — demonstrating that the Bible is the inspired and authoritative Word of God — is just as needed now as it was in Warfield’s day.
 
Wherever possible, I have maintained Warfield’s precise and scholarly style. However, chapter titles and much of the content have been rewritten to reflect how a believer living in the twenty-first century would study and defend these vital doctrines.
 
My prayer is that this updated edition will strengthen a new generation of Christians to stand firmly on the inspiration and authority of God’s Word in their own day and in their own way.
