Subject: Absolutely and Simply Necessary |
Bible Note: "As the word of God is the sole principle of theology, so the question concerning its necessity deservedly comes before all things." Rejecting false appeals to reason and nature, Turretin says: "But the orthodox church has always believed far otherwise, maintaining the revelation of the word of God to man to be absolutely and simply necessary for salvation. It is the 'seed' of which we are born again, the 'light' by which we are directed , the 'food' upon which we feed and the 'foundation' upon which we are built. "Although natural revelation may hand over different things concerning God and his attributes, will and works, yet it cannot teach us things sufficient for the saving knowledge of God without a supernatural verbal revelation." --Francis Turretin (1623-1687) |
