This is our final week in R. C. Sproul’s work Knowing Scripture. In this final chapter, Sproul walks us through some of the best tools available to us for studying, understanding, and applying the Bible to our lives.
Dr. John Snyder is by himself this week as he wants to share not just the available tools, but how he uses them in both daily devotion and sermon preparation. He also shares the strengths and the weaknesses of tools such as Study Bibles, paraphrases, and the different types of commentaries available to you.

Having discussed the necessity of mortifying sin and the flesh, watching and praying through Christ, John Snyder and Jeremy Walker move to discuss the practical helps God provides for us in fighting sin, repenting when we fall, and seeing restoration in our communion with God.
We often look for a silver bullet when it comes to difficulties of the Christian life. We want an easier way to kill sin. But Owen is too wise to offer an easy and cheap solution. He gives us the tools God has given us. They aren’t easy; they do require effort. But He provides the energy, the will, and the desire to master them.
