Subject: Church Fathers? Part V |
Bible Note: “ The orthodox (although they hold the fathers in great estimation and think them very useful to a knowledge of the history of the ancient church, and our opinion on cardinal doctrines may agree with them) yet deny that their authority, whether as individuals or taken together, can be called authoritative in matters of faith and the interpretation of the Scriptures,†Again does this not depend on which side you stand? If early church fathers interpretation of scripture agrees with yours most will say see even the early church fathers agree with me so on that authority it is correct. But it their interpretation disagree with yours most will day they are only men and not infallible. Scripture provided a boundary for us. If an interpretation falls within that boundary without modification of words, modification of sentence structure, without abandoning context or without violating a clear explanation else where in scripture, which of us was given the authority to call it false teaching. |
