1 | Resisting the Place of Scripture | Rom 9:31 | DocTrinsograce | 243532 | ||
"You can think too highly of your interpretations of Scripture, but you cannot think too highly of Scripture's interpretation of itself. You can exaggerate your authority in handling the Scriptures, but you cannot exaggerate the Scriptures' authority to handle you. You can use the Word of God to come to wrong conclusions, but you cannot find any wrong conclusions in the Word of God. "Of the four attributes of Scripture, [sufficiency] may be the one that evangelicals forget first. If authority is the liberal problem [Scripture plus], clarity the postmodern problem, and necessity the problem for atheists and agnostics [and the 22,000 independent denominations], then sufficiency is the attribute most quickly doubted by rank-and-file churchgoing Christians. "The finality of Christ's redemption for us is intimately tied to the finality of his revelation to us. If we say revelation is not complete, we must admit that somehow the work of redemption also remains unfinished. Scripture is enough because the work of Christ is enough. They stand or fall together." --Kevin DeYoung, from his book "Taking God at His Word: Why the Bible Is Knowable, Necessary, and Enough, and What That Means for You and Me" |

2 | Resisting the Place of Scripture | Rom 9:31 | EdB | 243534 | ||
The question as ways becomes who is exaggerating their authority in handling scripture and therefore are wrong and who is right. I do not doubt the sufficiency of scripture I question man's ability to find it. Especially men that reject the Holy Spirit to the point of rejecting His ministry to man. Case in point those that have concluded the Holy Spirit and His ministry no longer functions today. If they are so convoluted in their interpretation of scripture to come to that conclusion then we must assume they are convoluted in all other areas. |
