Synopsis:

'Did God really say?' is a fundamental theological question. If God has not spoken clearly, truly, trustworthily, and in human words, then anything goes: believe what you will, act as you wish no one can fault you. The church s historical belief in the truthfulness and trustworthiness of Scripture as God s written Word is being assaulted from without and from within. In this book, seven scholars from Covenant Theological Seminary, Reformed Theological Seminary, and Westminster Theological Seminary confront and repel many of these attacks. Reasoning clearly, cogently, and carefully, they show that the historical doctrine of Scripture is what Scripture teaches about itself, and that this teaching can meet and defeat the ungodly intellectual schemes brought against it.

Review: "Did God Really Say? engages the discussion of the doctrine of scripture offering keen and relevant insight into its current issues. The ideas presented are paramount to the Church and will be of particular benefit to those seeking to defend the doctrine of scripture." -- Alistair Begg "Senior Pastor, Parkside Church, Chagrin Falls, OH"

"Current discussion about the nature of Scripture circles around a plethora of topics, each of them painfully complicated. Here a handful of scholars tackles seven of them including the nature and development of the canon, the place of Warfield, God's relation to language, and the views of N. T. Wright with firmness and fairness." -- D. A. Carson "Trinity Evangelical Divinity School"

"The appearance of this volume is most welcome. At a time of increasing doctrinal imprecision and indifference with all too evident disastrous practical consequences for the life of the church and its mission, its authors address issues related to Scripture's nature, authority, sufficiency and clarity in ways that are timely and beneficial." -- Richard B. Gaffin Jr. "Professor of Biblical and Systematic Theology, Emeritus, Westminster Seminary, Philadelphia"
