This month we're starting a scholar contest. What's a scholar contest? The name we've decided to give to any contest where we give away books on the Bible or Christianity that will help you learn and grow as a Christian. Cool huh?
This being the first scholar contest, it will be the easiest. The prize? Check out the blue book in the picture. A brand new, sealed copy of The Answer Book: A Helpbook For Christians, by Th.D. Samuel C. Gipp.
Personally I love Gipp's books. They're always clear, concise, easy to understand, enjoyable to read, and full of factual information with references so you can look up the information he gives you.
This particular book has 62 common questions and answers new and sometimes seasoned Christians ask about the King James Bible and controversy surrounding it. Examples of a few of the questions answered in the Q & A format are:
#4 What about the archaic words?
#8 Where do Bible manuscripts come from?
#29 Can a translation be inspired?
#38 Is the New King James Version an improvement?
#40 Is the NIV trustworthy?
#48 Wasn't the Textus Receptus named after 1611?
What to do to win?
Simple, just post a comment below to this post and tell me three things you'd like to see a study or article on in the future of this site. Ideas could be a specific set of scriptures, a certain book, a specific topic, something in Christian news, something in Christian life today, or anything else having to do with the Word of God.
This contest is twofold. One: somebody wins this awesome book just by giving their opinion. Two: people who leave a comment below are telling us what they want to see written about on this blog in the future.
This contest runs until Saturday March 26, 2011 at 11:59 pm. Whoever has posted 3 ideas below will be entered into a drawing. The first person who's name is drawn wins.
P.S. Be sure to post after you've signed into your Blogger or Google account so that I know who to give the prize to. I will post the winner on March 27, 2011, and that person has one week to contact me with details of where to send the book, or else the next person drawn will get it.
