THE SCRIPTURES AS THE ONLY AUTHORITY
"If it is written, it is obeyed and taught.
"If it is not written, it is not obeyed and not taught."
In a time filled with opinions, traditions, and human interpretations, this short book calls believers back to the only infallible authority: the Word of God.
The Scriptures as the Only Authority is a clear, direct, and deeply necessary biblical study for every disciple of Christ. Its purpose is to guide the reader back to the written truth, urging them to reject personal interpretations, private revelations, and teachings that do not come from Scripture.
Using only references from the New American Bible (NBLA), this study invites the reader to open their Bible, examine each passage in its context, and allow Scripture to be the final voice in all doctrine, correction, and spiritual edification.
Within these pages, you will discover:
- The Bible as the only source of doctrine
- The divine inspiration and absolute authority of Scripture
- The unchanging nature of God's Word across cultures, eras, and traditions
- The danger of interpreting Scripture outside its context
- How the Word discerns, cuts, and transforms
- The responsibility of teachers to preach with faithfulness and fear of God
- The biblical warning against false teaching
- The necessity of submitting every doctrine to what is written
This book is an urgent call to return to the eternal foundation of the Christian faith. It is not written to entertain, but to confront, correct, edify, and direct the believer toward the truth that never changes.
Scripture is the lamp that guides our steps.
Return to it. Submit to it. Be built up by it.
