Bible Matters

OnTRAC TOGETHER for God’s WORDTest

BIBLE MATTERS: We believe that the Bible matters and we seek to stay OnTRAC Together in promoting God’s WORD. Here are a series of short articles addressing different “Bible Matters” (questions, concerns). We pray you will find them helpful in your journey towards a greater appreciation of God’s Word for our living and thinking.

No person, organization or media has the authority to express an official view or position on behalf of The Methodist Church in Singapore (MCS), this right having been reserved exclusively to the General Conference of MCS as a whole. This holds true also for The Trinity Annual Conference of MCS (TRAC). Whilst our writers are all TRAC Methodist preachers, and have been invited to write these articles for us, the viewpoints expressed do not necessarily represent the majority view of Methodists in Singapore.

May we “grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” as we consider together Bible Matters That Matter!

“To Christ be glory both now and forever! Amen.” (2 Peter 3:18)
