Basic Bible Doctrines

This book is written by Donald Webb and is an explanation of the basic doctrines of the Bible. BBD is written from a Pauline perspective, which means all the Bible is studied in light of the Pauline epistles. We believe that all the Bible is for us, for our learning, but that it is not all to or about us.

Following are excerpts from each of the 16 chapters.

This Book may be purchased in printed form from Day of Grace Ministries, Inc. See the "Orders" link on left.

Preface

Do we really need another book on Bible doctrine? What about all the other books on doctrine; aren’t they good enough? I could easily answer these two questions by simply saying that Basic Bible Doctrines approaches Bible doctrine from a Pauline perspective.
    This means that Paul’s words in Romans 11:13 are taken literally:

“For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify my office.”

    Paul is the Apostle of God for this dispensation of grace, and that makes Paul’s Epistles the key that unlocks the rest of Scripture. All Scripture must now be interpreted in light of the Pauline revelation—the revelation given to him by the risen, glorified Lord Jesus Christ. Paul’s writings are the only place in the Bible where we can read about this present dispensation of grace—the interim between the stoning of Stephen and the coming time of Jacob’s trouble. Yes, we do need another book on doctrine!
    There is a continuing need for exposition and proclamation of the truths of Scripture. To expand our understandings of the great truths of the Word of God is what I have endeavored to do, I trust with God’s help. I have sought to present the basic doctrines of the Bible in a concise and yet thorough way according the light and help God has given. May it not be the last such book written or read to gain further understanding of the Word of God.
    To that end, may the volume itself draw you closer to the Lord Jesus Christ and to God, the Father, in your knowledge and appreciation of Him. May it result in a living testimony to Him, in accordance with the revelation so wonderfully committed to us.
