The first temptation recorded in Scripture is an attack on the trustworthiness of God’s Word. Such attacks have continued unabated to our own day. In the past, such attacks were usually made by liberals, but today we hear more and more doubts cast upon God’s Word by professed evangelicals. In this lecture, Dr. Steven Lawson reminds us of the importance of a commitment to the authority, inspiration, and inerrancy of Scripture. From the 2011…
